The convoy down was good fun and it was great to put some faces to names.

Nice line-up of cars too

My one run was:

0-60 - 7.14
1/4 - 15.447

I had a full tank of LPG and the boot was full! That's my excuse....

Thumbs up Quarter Mile Drag Race

Hi Guys,

Great to see you all again.

What we have all been waiting for THE video

Mike and Tony's Quarter Mile Run

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eEX1f3wIQL4

Excuse the wobbly cam but you get the gist.

Hopefully see you all at the next one.

I'll post some pics later in the albums.

Steve
