Fri 25th to Mon 28th May at Santa Pod Raceway, Bedfordshire
www.santapod.com

FIA Top Fuel Dragster - 10 entries for an 8 car field
FIA Top Methanol Dragsters - 8 entries
FIA Top Methanol Funny Car - 9 entries for an 8 car field
FIA Pro Stock Car - 11 entries for an 8 car field
FIA/MSA Pro Modified - 24 entries for a 16 car field
Top Fuel Funny Car - 4 exhibition cars

look for a new European records all over the place; my picks would be:
Top Fuel, somewhere around the 4.65second mark and 320+mph
Pro Stock, low 6.8s@203/204mph
Pro Mod very low 6.1 maybe a 6.0 and over 230mph
Top Fuel Funny Car, first dip into the 4s and another 300mph run from John Spuffard

be there, should be one of the best races ever seen in Europe

and of course, we'll be there with the freshly painted '34 Ford altered in Super Pro

Sounds like it'll be a great event.

Hoping to run any new PBs or anything special planned for this event?

looking to get into the 8s, got a full pass to do for my licensing runs, run a 10.83 on a half pass so the 8s should be there

errm repaired the autobox from Easter, having it painted and a new magneto dropped in, everything else is as it was, will be a tough meeting, 40 cars in super pro going for a 32 car field
