Hi I'm Tim Fountain

Never had the desire to race and mechanically clueless but a keen photographer. I take pictures for a few teams and also provide some sponsorship for Team Turboville. Always willing to help teams out with photographic services as an associate sponsor if anyone is interested.

I have always been a two wheeled motorsport fan but enjoy watching everything at the strips. Regular at both SPR and SCR.

I was guilty of thinking drag racing would be boring until attending the Sunday of the European Finals 2003 to witness a jet car body flying through the air shortly after arrival, Micke Kagereds massive engine explosion to hand the title to Smax, a fuel funny car spitting its body off, Freddie Fagerstrom doing a near full track burnout and the Top Methanol Final which gave Dave Wilson the title by a hairs breadth. I have been hooked ever since

I'm Ray Comer and occasionally run a 99 camaro in Street Eliminator. Been watching drag racing since the 80s when my neigbour Clive, one of the Page brothers, used to go.

Occasionally crew for a couple of the other guys in SE when they need a spare pair of (useless) hands

Phil Sweeney, currently own and race my altered with the Wild Bunch and Super Pro ET. This is our 5th year drag racing, raced Mini's for a few years previously.

PB's are 8.49 @ 152MPH. Have won 3 MSA events in WB, qualified 14th first time out in Super Pro and have run run a perfect dial in, in our old slingshot which ran 13's and was a manually shifted 4sp box.

Here my car, currently being revamped, fresh paint for the Nostalgia's hopefully. Car is the ex Jon McIntyre's, Macs Rat, built late 90's and ran in Super Comp. My run of 8.49 is, I think the quickest the cars gone. The T body is from Tamtrum a small block altered from the 80's/90's, the body I beleive probably came from a Panic mould.

Hi
John Lucas, been going to watch Drag Racing since 82. Love the engineering side of the sport. Been a car mechanic since leaving school in 82 and would one day love to work on a race car but in the mean time watch you guys do it ! Got a Triumph TR7 that i have fitted 4.6 Rover lump to, so hope to get to few RWYB this year, hey everyone has to start somewhere !
Cheers John

Clive Rooms. Saw my first meeting at the Pod in August 1966 and have been watching drag racing regularly and continuously ever since at the Pod and Shakey. Been to York many times and also most of the NDRC venues many times in the 70's and 80's. Always been a spectator only, except for 1972-74 when I worked on the Pod firecrew. For the past couple of years, I have been helping the NSA run their sprint meetings around the country as well as watching not only mainstream drag racing, but also quite a few lifestyle events at the Pod and Shakey.
