Just put a bit of footage of the day together, it's not brilliant, but gives a bit of a flavour of the day:

Yes, it was fun. Only wished I'd done a bit more filming on the day, especially of Doug's car. I think I had the camera in my hand but was chatting rather than filming when Doug's S4 blew my car into the weeds on the main straight. I blame my mate who was driving it! :)

You wouldn't have embarrassed yourself by the looks of some of your good launches. I knew straight away that you weren't trying so just tried to get as big a gap as I could before you came sailing by......

Good to see the B5 doing well and with the current costs of them it is almost tempting to dip back in and go down the modding route you have.....

Get your name down for Fighting Torque 08 on PH when the official threads go up.....
