Watching all those suds in the first video is freaking me out. It's like my GTV6 and Scirocco humped and had children! Thanks though, neat videos.

Woke up this morning. Had my cup of tea and some yogart. Went to the site. And what
did I see? Some really nice racing. Thanks for making my day start so nicely. Oh yes,
I'm also sorry about your car. Previous to your crash, I couldn't help but to notice that
that Jag seemed a bit 'squirrely' and he's going to get him or someone else in trouble.
I really enjoyed it....Ed K.

hi pete , low 1.08s i think , getting fairly quick , eddie and ron have both got very similar suds , ron has just got his new motor with a few extra ccs , and will go quicker yet , photos of the cars can be viewed at Ground-Sky Photography
fascinating story you wrote re the fun you had with your sud , when was that .. obviously over this side of the ditch , i been on the scene since way back but don't know the car , now days you can bolt in a 16v and go reasonably quick if you lighten the car , i build a few engines so know what you mean about having no off the shelf bits and having to build everything ....

block thats a great way of seeing a sud sprint , have you ever seen one in the flesh in the us , best thing is they drive even better than they look , i love em ,

yea the crash took the steam out of my racing and have not got fully back into it yet , but the sprints in the shed and i still breathe so just got to find the right moment , eddies driving in the second video and if ya not doing it ya self watching the bro punt his sud around aint a bad second best , there are 37 videos so far in the link below , check them out if you enjoy ...
cheers
