Unbelievable - it happened just in front of us and I have a picture as they just make contact, no serious injuries thank goodness.

Incredible racing , Andy Robinson running a 5 in the Pro Mod, but not making the final. In the final one of the Pro Bananarama! the wall, TF cars exploding, Clutch fires, Timo running a 5.22 - you name it - it had it. A really memorable weekend...........

Saw their Barracuda at the Nats 2 yrs ago, so I stopped and had a chat, as you do.......didn't know them at all, said I used to run the "Hot Metal" Cuda.....and blow me down he says ..."yes I know, don't you remember me, I bought the short block from your Cuda, its still running in a pop" well I don't remember people from 20 odd yrs ago do I.. :oops: ....Anyhow an impressive performance and only a 540ci ally B blocked stroker I believe.

That crash is off the scale......How the hell he didn't brake his leg, snap his ankle whilst doing 180+ when it was trapped or get flung into the rear tyre and minced................ :shock:

Another one where I'd be buying lottery tickets!!!!

Just....... :shock: :shock: :shock:
