As it says in the title. Our two 2018 trips to the Bahrain International Circuit in film as we attempt to best the street legal 1/4 mile world record, and dip in to the 5 second zone at the same time.
It's quite long, but it's real life entertainment. Give it a watch if you like this sort of thing...
Big thanks to Ali Mahmood and Mohammed Alshrouqi from UTrack TV for their long hours and dedication to getting it all on film .

What a tremendous video.
I absolutely love drag racing so I think I have a bit of an understanding of what goes on behind the scenes but that is fantastic.
Frosty and the team I have boundless respect for what you have achieved
Are you going to be back to the pod any time soon?

Glad you liked it Gary.
Not anytime soon no. It's back to Bahrain for us in November.

Excellent documentary Andy - it’s brilliant to have long film (about 49min I recall?) that you can really get into and sense the journey you guys are travelling.
One thing is: I felt you underplayed your driving role too much. The consistency of the clean runs was proper impressive in such a machine. Well done, and all the best for the future!
PS. I was project manager for a power station construction project in Bahrain and hoped for a chance to see u guys in person.

Thanks Gazza. I try my best. Don't want to let the guys down who work so hard on the car. We'll be going back in January, but not sure what dates yet, as they haven't been released by the BDRC.
