Well I'd say yes, but am dubious about going as no one turned up at the pod for the RWYB apart from icemahn after a few said they will be going.

The term Altered goes back to the 50's when racers took old fords, Chevy's, fiats and would Alter them from stock looking cars in to hot rods.

If he does there is a big que and I'm at the front of it :D

What a great weekend I had at Santa Pod, I crew on this Nitro Fuel Altered dragster and this was our first full weekend of racing not only this season but with this car as it was brand new and built last year but we didnt take delivery of it until September and only got in three test runs last year so we are still learning how it reacts, so with that and the crappy weather and cold track over the weekend we managed to get out for 2 runs Sunday and 2 runs Monday with the first one on Monday making us the fastest Altered all weekend with a 6.5 second @ 221 mph pass (which we have been told is 3 mph faster than they managed in America last season they clocked a pass @ 218 mph but we need to verify it ourselves) which put us in the final, but unfortunately the car we were up against in the final took a bit longer to stage than us and we were sitting in stage a little bit to long and at about half track we blew cylinder no 5 so had to settle with second place but that's racing and will keep us busy this weekend, but we will be the first Nitro Altered outside of America to get a 5 second run this year .

It's good to see you back mate at long last :D

I guess not then

So did anyone go as I never saw a Lexus in the time I was there?

I would have tried Tony at Wheels in motion first,he does a good deal B)

Cheers Steve,I'll give him a call tomorrow

Anyone ?

Looking at having it vinyled graphics and colour :D But cheers for the offer sorted vti.

We have nothing as he was doing the design,print and fit and we were having a new colour scheme for this season,the car is based in Essex. But we are looking for this to be done as a sponsorship deal in return for advertising on the car and truck & trailer. Some of the races get 30.000 / 40.000 spectators and a few of the races will be on Sky TV,DVD (which is being filmed next weekend),in magazines Custom Car,American Car World (the car is in the March 2009 edition,old colour scheme) and Classic American

Do we have anyone in the club that does vinyl car wrapping or does someone know of somebody that does it ? Needed urgently as we have been let down by a bloke and we have SKY TV coming round next weekend to film the car in the off season for TV and DVD .

Does anyone have any idea if and when the next meet at the Ace might be ?

Hi mate and welcome to the club,did you get your parts from Rock auto in the states ?

I'll be there on the Sat & Sun,but I'm crewing on this,so wont be there with the club but when you come down the pits pop your head in and say hello :D

Any joy yet lads

I'm going to the Peak Performance Test & Tune Day on the 4th & 5th of April.

I'm after the air bag wiring loom for a 1999/2000 IS 200.

Yes please mate :D

Has anyone done a clutch change on a 1994 Accord 2.0,whats involved ie; sub frame drop etc ?
