    Well it was a nice cold night with a few personal bests including myself with a 12.7 @ 109mph :D

    A good handful of zedders out and I got to meet a few new faces including pmack and Cindy (Brissy Beauty) :). Later the place was filled up and my car played up anyway so it was time to rest and watch.

    Was a good night overall. :)

    Sorry Greg, I couldn't beat your time :p

    Stupid customers kept me from getting there early.:mad: I did do a new PB of 13.1 but I'm disappointed with that time as I know I can be heaps faster. Just couldnt get out of the gates fast enough. Traction was a big problem as is to be expected with 225 stockies. I either bogged down off the line or I fried the tyres due to lost traction. There seemed to be no in between. :mad:

    (If I wasn't running late I was going to bring my race slicks out,:mad: stupid work)

    You're Welcome :D

    Well done nonetheless. So Pissed I couldn't come. The gearbox is superbly awesome now, might even be able to shave some more time off my PB. Ekka timke is normally quiet, but we are very busy at work this year. Go figure :(

    Talk about freezing!!

    Beautiful night for the cars, but for us it was insane! The wind went right through us!
    Decided not to race, partially because of the drug cocktail for my cold and no helmet... Thanks for attempting to lend me yours Sticky, sucks it was too late!
    Was really good to catch up with everyone and finally meet a few people. The guys that raced did really well!
    By the way, did the Skittles help your car on the way home Sticky!? :p
    Next time I'll make sure I find my helmet and see how the fat ass NA does!
    Rory... you suck! Mia is witness... 2 events in a row you have piked on... getting slack already!! :mad:
    Will see you all at the next event! :D

    Ok here's a short vid of my first run. If you want your car to sound as tough as mine then gernie your alternator bearings and loosen off your dump pipes a bit :D (not that I did this but I'm assuming thats what they did to the engine before I bought it and as for the dumps? Well thats debatable but in the end I had to swap them back over while engine was back in. Didn't get all bolts back in :eek: )
