Hi everybody
Well here we are in the new year , we've had some rain and now a cyclone and i'mm thinking it's about time we had some fun on a Sat night at the strip , so who's interested and what date suits you best , majority ruling .
Andrew aka the Rat Racer Pilot
Don't let body work get in the way of real suspension travel
This sat is street meet, i'm trying for next Sat ( not sure the date)
Sounding good , gives me a chance to dump some stale fuel in the victa and check the Rat over
Don't let body work get in the way of real suspension travel
I'm in! Fingers crossed for the weather.
Doh , looks like i'mm out for next Sat night the 12th as its my brothers 40th

Fantastic, I bet Tom is wrapped. Hopefully Frosty is having some success too. I saw him heading north with the beetle on the trailer this arvo when I was on my home from work - would have loved to shoot up but had to spend some family time at home.
Knowing Tom, I'm sure its only a matter of time before we have some youtube footage of his passes!

Great night by the looks Tom. Those 60's are getting better, but don't think your engine liked the 195 mains(??).

Don't beat your self up Frosty for a NA 1776 it goes pretty hard. Maybe some more head work?
