Yes it's taken a while but I've slimmed down my Nats pics to a more manageable 180...
Good job I took less than usual, due to weather, MMA stand duties, chit-chatting etc etc but no regrets, it was good to catch up with some people we hadnt seen for donkeys years.
It was nice that Mark Pinborough had 'one of his cars' there, 68 Baccaruda with a fresh Gary Mills 340-stroker (now 420 )
And Mark joined us on the Friday night cruise to Topspeed - our first time going on the cruise for a few years

Great photos cheers rob
What was the story of the racing Mercedes ??
Love Pete’s cuda as well
Thanks Steve. Yeah, bit of an odd one, that Merc. It's a mate of ours, well, someone we know from up this way. He used to have a 69 Coronet that he raced a bit, then got a V8 Morgan that was just set up for drag racing and was v quick... maybe 11's?
But now he's bought this quite rare Merc that has some mods for racing but engine-wise it's pretty stock, so not v quick at all... 16's I think?
