Well for those who may be interested, had a very good day. Lots of different cars at the event and it's quite a relaxed affair meaning Gavin and myself managed to get quite a few runs in and we'd both left by around 3pm.

However the surface is not that great, and i'm just an amateur so my times are not that impressive. My best of the day was a 14.3@104mph, but during that run I beat a Skyline who was giving it large in the burnout box.

Didn't get around to taking any pics, but our cars popped up in a few others posts around the net:

Looks a good day.
A great selection of cars there and seems the weather held.

What happened with the old Ford Estate thing…
Your helmet was good yeah?

Got to love it when somebody has to add excuse text to their video.

I think you mean the white one which Gavin went up against, if so it was bloody quick. There were a lot of hot-rod/peoples garage builds there, some of them were damn quick, others launched quite well but then run out of puff once up and running.
