Yes, we are back at the Pod this weekend for the "Superstock" Permitted event at the Green Light Nationals:

https://santapod.co.uk/greenlight-nationals.php

Myself and Blue, ably assisted by Stu Floyd and his family are having yet another go at driving reasonably fast in a straight line.

In fact, we are there on Friday 19th August for the "Test and Tune!" day - goodness knows I need the practice.

However, the car (after a long period of bug-fixing) is starting to take shape and is becoming more consistent, which really is a prerequisite for a "Bracket" Class.

At the last outing , the Top ten cars all ran a "Perfect Light", and I think the top 27 were separated by 0.5 of a second!
Highly competitive!

No sure of who took the photo but I am most grateful!!!

See you at the track!

A fantastic time at the Santa Pod "Green Light Nationals".

On the loosing side of the race (as usual) but only Broke out by 0.09 second - lost to a well-deserved winner Garry Carr in his fantastic Chevelle.

Thanks to John Pratt, Stuart, Sal, and Jess Floyd for their assistance at the Track.

Thanks also to Stuart Raynor for the picture.

Yes.... the Trans Brake did not work either, so still foot-braking in the picture.

Let's do it all again at the "National Finals" in September.....
