The weekend was full of issues starting with having to pull the trailer out of the mud with the Astra towing the Land Rover towing the trailer! After some upgrades to the dragster over the winter including new slicks and a brand new track, we had no data for the car so went along for the test day. Paul was lucky to get 4 runs in but it didn't give us much help for data as there was a fuel issue. The weather was bad all weekend and Paul only got one run in which didn't go well. We were called down for eliminations but the race meeting was called off after the track was deemed unsafe to continue largely due to the lack of heat and rubber in the track. In fact Paul dodged a bullet as we discovered the car was broken! On the plus side the new trailer is lovely. Finally we have somewhere comfortable to sit while it rains and proper cooking facilities too. We don't have to hide in an overgrown coffin when it rains anymore!
