Well we certainly had a very good day, as did all the 9 second runners, Clive, Frank, and Andy, and all running Lateral 2.35lt engine parts

The 9.46 is without the nitrous, so hopefully, there's more to come.

I think if you're going to have classes, then there should be awards on all 3 disciplines for all 3 classes. E.g. Top 4 in each class for each discipline fight for the number 1 spot.
The way it went (for example) is that there was 4 awards for top speed, which all went to the C class. Pointless! Why bother having classes that can't touch the competition class?
I would personally like to see the 3 classes win 1 award each per discipline, and one award per class for the best car in class' overall "points" on all 3 disciplines. This would make a better way of giving awards out IMO. Rather than, "fastest circuit car - banana" "fastest drag time - banana" "fastest top speed - banana" it could be Fastest in CLASS - banana etc.
But hey, I doubt I would be listened to, afterall I have a standardish class car which falls into modified because of a cone filter

Scoobydoo69,
I totally agree that the awards need to be sorted out. The whole reason the classes were introduced was so that everyone had a chance to win a prize, and to encourage more people to have a go.
I didn't realize this had changed so much.
In previous years when I was one of the sponsors, I gave prizes in the 3 slowest 1/4 mile classes, for 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 9 prizes in total, and other companies gave prizes for the other classes, disciplines.
I'm sure Scooby Clinic will look at this for next year, so more people are winning a prize/trophy.
Mark.

Thanks Mark. Despite my issues with the classes and awards I had a fantastic time and would not tell someone not to have a go because of the classes, as the fun was taking part not the winning.. but I can only wish more people entered this event. I remember coming to watch years ago with my dad and the event was rammed with sponsors, spectators and entrants. I could only hope for it to return to that form.

London = 400 miles
Glasgow = 450 miles
Cardiff = 500 miles
