Hello, from a rather rainy Santa pod!

I take it you've seen the wheelstand shots on eurodragster?

Being at the end of the day, I'd been wondering if there would have been enough photographers left around to catch the last one. Glad to see I was wrong, and Andy Wilsheer got the shot (although I think it actually went even higher than the picture shows). I can't wait to see what it does once the wheelie bars are on...

This photo was taken by Steve Wilson.
I have a bigger one on my computer which Slinky will no doubt get online shortly....
Also Top Nitro and Mark G have some too,along with more from Andy W.
Those are once in a lifetime wheelies( 4 in one meeting is enough for me)and i don't plan on doing them again...
Tet,from the back half numbers which gained 46mph from 1/8 to 1/4 i'm confident it'll go fast,particularly as i was off the throttle for 1.5 secs at the start and in top from midway down the wheelie..

Any chance of emailing me a high res version of that pic, Andy? I think I've found my new wallpaper!

Brill!

Was that all purely down to intake charge temps or have you done more stuff too?

I bet Mrs F loved washing your undies after that weekend!laugh

It's what you get when you put those tyres on a car that is set up for little radials and weighs 3400lbs..
You also get broken steering and suspension parts..... ah well,it's only money...
for the first time ever Mrs F was worried...
