A most impressive performance by John & his Skyline. Here he is yesterday, just past the tree:-

Amazing. That car (and other quick Jap tin) will bring much needed publicity to the sport.

I don't want to start the debate over traditional versus modern, but if it brings new blood (and money) to the sport who cares?

Fantastic car John, good work !

Ive got some more I'll load up during the week, but I think this is my favourite.

You didn't do too badly yourself, Andy. Good to see you with a grin on your face after a decent run at last.

Fantastic performance from both and a fantastic weekend

A real shame that we did not manage to get the demo run with you this afternoon Andy (Nick from GTST Crew BTW!)

ah Nick it's you.. Yep,it's a shame we never got a good run together,i'm sure we will next time.
Good luck at your last round.I'm sure it'll be a bun fight between you and Steve W...

Thanks everyone & great to see you Andy & Slinky again - that bloody car of yours gets more outrageous by the week !

What an event packed into 2 days, my face has probably got marks in after spending so much time being stuck to it watching the racing

Shame we got knocked out after round 1 by 300'ths but we are just not ready to be ultra accurate with ET forecasts as the car is being developed & getting quicker all the time - bloody enjoyed being knocked out by that car though - what a noise the thing makes - certainly for at least the next 12 - 18 months comp elim fits us a lot better. Great to see such a friendly pit with everyone happy to chat & offer advice.

amazing weekend & great weather - there is a god after all (i just hope he is around next weekend for the same weather for Japshow finale !)

Happy Birthday to Mr. 7 Second Skyline.
He looks great for a 70 year old

Have a great day Mr. Bradshaw

was awesome to watch, and I love that deep thumping rumble as it sits on the rev limiter before launching

Any news on whether John has been running today? Finals of the HKS drag series..

Be very surprised if they turned a wheel today thb. Yesterday was quite nice though.

It was all rained off today. Only managed one run before the rain yesterday but really struggled with traction and the headwind took the bonnet off just under the gantry!

bugger, on both counts!

It was the numberplate last time.. Who was responsible for bolting that front end together?

Huge congratulations John on the 2008 HKS Series win - fantastic result, albeit I know you would rather have run quicker again today again....
