I thought of going today as the forecast did not look too bad but the fairly sparse Fuel entry put me off in the end. Looking at the webcam {which is excellent by the way} it looks like I avoided another long,cold frustrating day !

I've seen Top fuel, jet-cars, Jet-bikes and the Jet Quad doing demo runs at the BullDog Bash at Avon park....you could "feel" them through your chest biggrin

Have also seen the Jet Quad doing Demos on the Isle of man during TT fortnight cool


I love anything with an Engine, A proper Drag-meet (along with Le-Mans) is firmly on my "too do" list.
