Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy My brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay My Mopar upon you

Nice photos Boz :) I'll have to bung some of mine up later!

Great racing, pity about having a headwind knocking times down a tad (and getting grit everywhere, lol).

Thanks everyone!!!
My best distance time was 18.6 seconds but the best race i did was in the elimination round 1 yesterday - just because i beat John (the guy with the 68 dart) to elimination round 2. I got a 4 second head start and it was all i needed to beat his 440!!!

One of my not so good runs was when i got into elimination round 1 on sunday and was up against Dave Billadeau. He had to wait on the start line for 8 seconds (just enough time for a cup of tea! :D ) But he then passed me to take another win!!!

'Jerryatric' caught fire on the start line - fuel had spilled onto the exhaust pipes and caught fire!!
Plus he got a bit side ways on his first run on sunday - i was amazed he managed to straighten it up again - i thought he was going to do a 180 spin at one point!!! :shock:

Looking at one of the pictures of my car at the start line - i didnt realise it was that high at the back! Looks cool though 8-)
