I'll be there too. Saturday will probably be the best day if you want to see the Pro cars run.

Micke Lindahl ran 6.20 and Urban Johansson had a 0.98 60ft so it can't of been that bad....

...and didn't he look good doing it? I loved his Bel Air, but I think if anything the Camaro looks even better:

hey guys, i was there in my legend again...although had a few problems! the gearbox was playing up in the morning, athough that was rectified pretty quickly. then bolted on the new slicks...and stupid old me decided to dump the clutch and accelerate like i did with the old tyres on...big mistake...car just sluttered to a halt...thought a broke a half shaft but i think it jsut span the clutch. then spent the rest of the day learning how to drive again! its like driving a different car now, i was back in the 13s by the end of the day and finally got my 60ft under 2 seconds, which is what i was looking for. hope to improve next time out now ive got the hang of driving with the extra grip...so hoping for a 12 really, should be able to do it after setting 13.3/101 on the old treads witha 2.1 60ft. interesting comparing my timing slips from one of my runs, 60ft was better and upto the 8th was better but after that i lost half a second and 9mph, only thing i can put that down to is the wind...hopefully a new paint job next time out...either satin/matt black, hopeully be out on the 9th june for rwyb

I have to say the car looks a lot better in its new scheme compared to the one i saw at Autosport.
