Went around 9yrs ago and thought it'd be good to experience it again.

I went for the "VIP" package today, which gave us a great view & noise - last time I was up on the banks, which gave some perspective of the speed, but just wasn't as close as the pits VIP Area (not that bothered about the VIP part - more the fact you could get the best views/noise in the house & for an extra £50 on the door seemed like a deal - lunch included)

I just cannot get over how loud a Methonol Dragster is biggrin

I had a new set of straight through pipes (i.e no silencing) fitted on the AC Cobra last weekend and thought that was loud - that is nothing - and I mean nothing, compared to a Top Fuel Dragster - I'm still just getting over both my rib cage & head vibrating from the noise - nothing at all like it thumbup
