Surface was breaking up everywhere other than the strip itself - which had been filled with concrete anywhere that was bad - and had been swept EXTENSIVELY with a road sweeper truck - which had been working for 2 days solid - at Ł35 an hour

Full post details about the event are here:

My pics on the way - this is me burning in the sun, on the right trying to be useful!

Ok, piccy time, only camera phone pics as I was busy marshalling the cars in the fire up lane, so no time for proper pics:




Crowds look small, but it was far busier most of the time - I only took photos during quiet bits in the racing - it was packed!







Paul J off here - came with his mate in the Focus RS above



Loved this Maserati - being used as it should be - and it just kept going and going, probably did the most runs of the day






Fred Furlong on a mildy modded GSXR1000

Andy Frost from Redvictor racing - did a lot of 1/8th mile burnouts which the crowds loved! 2500 bhp baby


Best burnout went to this F150 Lightning


Fastest FWD car - Honda Civic

Mark Turbo off here - fastest 4x4 car of the day


Fastest bike - aided no doubt by the little NOS bottle!

Best turned out car (and some damn good burnouts ):

Fastest RWD car and quickest overall:

Nitrous retailer on site


Will keep people up to date with details of the next event as soon as it is organised

Cheers
Si

Is this the one your on about? I found these while i was looking for pics of my car

I had 2 runs against what must have been her boyfriend in that rx7, everytime we were getting ready to line up near the startline she was there by the fence blowing him kisses and mouthing i love you or something like that to him She even lifted her dress a bit and showed a bit of ass at one point Despite nearly being put off by that i beat him both times I reckon she was deliberatly trying to put me off
