In the end the only 19s in our enclosure were mine, JB's, Pierre's, Chunk's and Mike's

five 19s all told, pathetic. Where were all the people who said they would attend?

yeah would have been nice to see more valvers...but tbh i was blown away with all theother motors there....wow, never been before...awesome stuff...could just sit tere all day and watch. the big v8 jobbies running under 10 secs were the best,....the noise is phenomenal!

i may go up again this weekend as they have an easter extraveganza!! lots and lots of crazy machines....full on top fuel dragsters....its got to be seen...p[lanning on goin up with my son...he'd luv it too

Did you see the front end of the Jet car lifting up at around 240 mph on the second run. At around 1000 foot down the track.

He might have got wheel spin off the line. But he had a sub in the boot, plus some baby gear. The day was great for 1/4 mile tho' nice and cool. and the small amount of wind that was there. was allmost blowing down the track ( if you can spot the medical center flag, to show wind direction.).

Anyhow few more vid's. Right click save as...

I missed the start. If you can hear the big V8 that was at the back of me. Well I was looking at that, so I missed it. Here a run from last year's RTOC day. 16.514. Runnin with 17's on, spare wheel still in car, back seat's etc. and allmost a 1/4 tank of fuel. I know that, because Zed blew the plug out of is 172. And I had to tow him.

Plus the start was ok. but it still bogged down a little.
