What a great day!

Big thanks Trev for the pass and the great compitition! :-D
I think officialy it was two all? :-D but in truth Tk got the better of me with a 13.3 and 13.4 to my 14.0 and 14.1! He then jumped the lights on one run and missed a gear on another! I think i got away from the lights first on three runs, and went through the feeling of yes ive done him!

on the first half, Through "bugger" here he comes

on the second half! To "Sh!t" hes passed me by the end!

But darn it was fun! Still struggling to work out how my runs were no quicker this time than they were in feb, and i was getting no wheel massive spin this time and my terminal speeds were slower this time? :? Yet i`m now running cat-less!
You bet i want a rematch! :-D :thumb: Is the pod open tommorrow? :-D

Certainly Gerry! feel quite guilty that we put you off today, I think a lot of people are feeling the pinch, as the ques this morning were`nt very long and by mid afternoon there were`nt any

I no Max1 won his class with a 9.4 second run. And John brad won his class with an 8.0 second pass.

well done mark for a class win

i was a bit gutted to not make a high 12 second run because im sure its possible my best run a 13.3 was my first go and the lights changed to quick and had no revs so no launch my 60ft was over 2 seconds, the next 2 runs where a disaster as russ says ,i have clutch issues or something its like trying to change gear on a 1920's tractor or something
i managed to beat the 100mph though with a 105 so pleased with that
all good fun though and i forgot how much fun driving in a straight line is

I've only done SSO and the BP 1/4 mile and although not much experience I rather enjoyed it. Expensive on the g/box though having had failures at the last two SSOs.
