I am Michael Dowdy and as Big go'75 implies, have been spectating since Whitsun 1975 and only ever missed one major meeting. I think I paid £1.50 to get in and another 50p for a Paddock pass. For a while I did some work for Drag Racing News and even had an article on Al's Gasser published in the now defunct Rod & Custom magazine.

I haven't got round to racing yet but you never know. I do admire the amount of commitment put in by all racers, as well as everybody else who keeps the sport going.

First went to the POD as a fresh faced 16 year old (28 years ago!) when I used to hang around with the Surrey Street Rodders. I rode up there in Pinbal Wizard the day it became the UK's first road legal 10 second car and I was bitten by the bug.
Have been back on countless occasions, the last 7 years to participate in the RWYB sessions - my best time so far is a 15.62 (into a 0.3 headwind) - might not sound fast but there is something perverse that only a few will understand about making one of these run faster than a sierra cosworth :-)
