Yes. He raced a TF rail as well as a TF Funny car.

Easy guy to talk to in the pits. No matter what rush was on he would always take time to chat and answer questions. He even gave me and a mate a couple of spare bolts and a loan of one of his trolley jacks when we needed to repair the tow hitch mount on my mates Austin 1800.
Top bloke he was.

It's heavy going but Martin's link to Hammonds crash investigation is fascinating.

Very successful woman, but for me, the appeal stops at racing. Will be interesting to see her back. Hope she does well.

I think she was doing that before her & Geof split up - if memory serves, she had an out-building (cat equivalent of a kennel i guess :? ) in their back garden near Geof's workshop when they lived next to the water tower near Rushden.

That was prob at least 10 years ago tho :shock:

I think she helps run a paintball place at the moment. She likes to act as a sniper.

I remember Asphalt alligator doing a wheel stand at the pod off the line.
I seem to recall Geoff telling me the Rossi car ran 10.30 or something close to that, it was quite a trick car by all accounts.
