Thanks guys, I know I always enjoy other peoples pictures so glad you liked these. I have plenty more, but those gave a flavour anyway.

It does seem that attendance was down at MATS, but to be honest I fully occupied my time anyway (in fact I did not see as much of the racing as I'd have liked) so I was a happy camper. The spectator count was down for the NHRA race as well (I heard it was 18000) which suited me just fine!! :D This might have been one reason for the MATS attendance on Saturday when I was there......only lasted an hour though

Yes Ivor that cuda was the DB! Here's another to keep your interest. One of my favourite cars...if it lost the cowl hood it would look even better

Image

Anyway, take a look at this picture.......kinda what you'd expect from a Pro team

Image

It's a Super Stock team :shock: Some of these guys have some money!!! Mind you, look at this for a tent for the night - again not a Pro team or anything, this was still at MATS

Thanks for posting Gavin, that Barracuda does look like the proper tool...what with the rules and regs, I could be on the turn!

I'm amazed at the kit some of these people have, I must be in the wrong business... :roll:
