Paul says:
"it came off the line like a bag of Bananarama! (drag racing term) so i got off it, then it exploded, then i thought it might be on fire still so i nailed it, and it just went in to a big wheel stand and ran 10.77 @ 169mph
ran a best of 7.76@175 on monday morning to qualify 4th"
No damage, apparently
