new fwd record today
if i heard right the lads from blackpool managed to do the quater in 12.64 which for a car on it's first official outing is some going and the puma they had there wasn't shy too doing 12.8's all day long looks like the fwd scene this year is really taking off should have some new records all round if paul j gets the focus out to play

Yeah times are right mate, Puma and fiesta both broke shafts this morning we managed to fix the fiesta though after a few lads with the twin engined fiesta got us a shaft, Thanks again btw!
Both cars will be back with more to come, Cant wait!
Was a brilliant weekend, some real good cars with good times.

(Note to self, never get in a car with lewis without a nappy.lol)

First run I lit the tyres up in 1st, when it got grip 1 second later it hoped in the air while pulling the subframe off the chassis.
Needs subframe mounting a different way. It was the cars first run after been put together on Saturday.

Tried all day to get Paul up the strip with the Focus, but sensibly enough was thinking of the lifespan of his gearbox. Can't blame him really, gotta be in a bit of a mind frame to set records
