The strip didnt open till gone 12
Rained, then stopped, the rained, then stopped etc etc!

Was pretty dead too, the queue only went half way back to the cafe for most of the time I was there.

I saw about 2 hours worth of runs, then it started raining again so I gave up and came home!

Ive just put up a thread with afew pics in:

Was running 20 psi 12.1 and 128 or somet terninals but he's off out to see a bird so no full details.

Karls bro in the Sunbeam aparently was high 11's but again nothing concrete.

Sorry to disapoint everyone.....
