Jeff Strathams 420 SEAC racer (yellow) looks great.

Nice shots as usual Gary.

Really sorry you couldn't run on the strip yourself. When do you get your car back from Austec?

That wedge looked fantastic, didn't seem particularly suited to the dragstrip though.

Not a great time for him - he used to have around a genuine 340 bhp (4.5 early tuscan race engine) .. wedges do not have the best suspension / dive in the world - so would loose some time off the line, maybe offset by running slicks.

So - a poor time.

Maybe he improved later or just plain wanted to enjoy the experience without breaking in - all possible.

But - it was and still is the sexyist looking car in the worls to me
