the reactions don't count on your time, beating 100mph across the lines very good tho. Main thing is you enjoyed it, i'm looking forward to seeing the rest of the times

Yeah but it's all Japanese to me, logic doesn't seem to apply to how it works out there. You can get quicker reaction, faster terminal and slower quarter mile. My head hurts!

Looked like another great day... I found myself dying of another cold on the sofa. it was so bad I kept falling asleep during the F1 and had to keep rewinding it to catch up. think I finished at 22:00 after starting at around 14:00ish.

I will make it out soon!!

Pete won the best in show for clarity & depth in the paint finish - plus an immaculately presented engine bay.

Highly commended goes to both Neal & Richard who both put out great cars.

I've lost my best time ticket - no idea where it went. I would have liked to have put on a bit more of a contest & actually get near to putting even a small amount of pressure on Dean.

Fastest 70 series is a hollow victory given I was the only one in the class.

Still she's a little quicker than normal - I was posting mostly 14.2 last year.

Pushed on a 2.296 as my best sixty foot missing out on the trophy my a meer 3 1/100ths.

My Best time of the day was a mere 14.086 @ 104.something (lost the chit)

Best speed of the day was 14.1 @ 105.6mph

Thanks to Pete for organising - I had a smashing time on the Saturday - though my head hurt a lot till at least lunch.

I will say I was a little disappointed not to be more competetive. AITs on the strip were high - but it didn't seem to stop Dean from thrashing us all - so fair play. Just have to come back harder & faster.

I did look at yours as a contender - I looked at everyones in the show & shine. You did stand a chance -as did everyone.

The awards were IIRC
fastest 850 - Dean
fastest 70 series - Wobbly
fastest 60 ft time - Dean
fastest reaction - not sure who won that
Best in show - Pete.

TBH I'd sooner have just fastest Volvo on the day as competition.

No prizes other than Best in Show were handed out. TBH if I knew you were going to spit your dummy out I wouldn't have mentioned the other 2.

Your car is a good looking machine & it is clear you take pride in the appearance. So don't get your knickers in a twist - do something about it & then next year perhaps you can win - because the simple fact is neither of the red 855Rs were even close to Pete in terms of paint clarity, depth & feel.
