A very nice 10 minute YouTube video of the Drags here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YsM40l_m3b0Buffering's a bit slow but worth persevering with. Includes the Friday night "Cacklefest", (firing the cars up en masse in the dark), fireworks & Saturday racing. A lot of cars there that had already left for home by the time I arrived Sunday lunchtime. |

Bobbi's, (Biker Gran's), & Doc's, (Twisted Patience's), photos now added. Thanks guys.  http://mankymonkeymotors.co.uk/Photos/hotroddrags09/words.htmlSome really nice shots there. Slightly fuzzy, but most of this lot look like that anyway- Doc, Welsh Tony, (CunningPlan), Lesley, (Black Pig, Mrs Brock), & Steve, (Brock). |

Always hard to convey the deafening noise of a drag meet, which is a big part of the race atmosphere I think. This shot of Doc's shows it pretty well doesn't it.  |

Nice shot of Ken Brooks' "Roarin' Rat", one of the big name race cars from many years back, still showing them how it's done & still looking fabulous.

Some of the fuzziness was caused by the lens gradually picking up more dust as the weekend went on - I had nothing to clean it with, I've lost my little brush!

I had a proper little brush with a puffer - you can scratch the lens if it's covered in dust and you wipe it with your (dusty) T shirt!
