Is anyone from here participating in this event on Sat apart from Hot460 (Rich) in his Coupe.
I looked at the entry list and out of 100 odd cars there is only about 25 Fords. If anyone goes, come and say gidday to Rich and I in his Blue XA Coupe. Running in Super Sedan. Chris

Not a real good day, but we had fun anyway.
Best for the day was a 10.40 @ 129, which was a little slower than expected. The torque convertor is giving up the ghost and Rich was losing about an extra tenth on the 60' compared to the previous pass. First round he put out the 2nd top qualifier with a 10.5 @ 129 against the losing 8.2. Got knocked out in the second round with a 10.7 (1.69 60' instead of the usual 1.4). Good to see you again Craig. You got through a few rounds and must of had a good time out there. Burnz: Sub 10 sec cars run in Super Sedan as there is no bottom cut-off. There is a few 7 sec SS/AA cars around. (Unless they run a specific class like S/Gas, SCO, etc.)
