Luckily the guy in the other lane blew up ans slowed a second before Dixons wheel departed otherwise it would have been ugly. Highlight of the night
other than photo with Larry was Chris Matheson on his TF bike trying to break into the 5's. Two of the best TF Harley passes i've seen. One wheel
until 1000ft. This guy doesn't know how to lift. Best I saw was a6.18 from memory. The bike has run 5.80s in the US. Also pro tree lights are not
turbo friendly. Top night.

I wasn't there ( Saturday) , Chris Matheson went so close to the five , with a 6.043 at a big 241 mph .
Sorry Stanley , no harley for Matheson , 4 stroke all the way . What did you think of the new format style ?
I didn't mind it , more cars (anytype) would of be better . Music a little to loud as well .
