Autotrader Easter Thunderball 2008 Day Four!

Well Day Four went reasonably well, a dry morning and a lot of hard work from the track staff meant racing was underway relatively quickly. It's been a busy day with a lot of classes to get through but the VWDRC did finally get their slot things didn't go so well for us here with Chris going out in the first round to new boy Russ Weir, well done Russ, right on the numbers.

After our defeat we decided to head down to the startline to see some of the pro fuel shootout. Wow! I think it's a unanimous 'we love top fuel' from everyone here!

It all seems so much more mental when you're on the side of the start line, the Nitro is burning your eyes and nose, the noise is pounding in your chest like a punch from a boxer and ringing in your ears like nothing you've ever felt before, then the tree drops and it just goes to another level! The ground is shaking, the air is literally on fire as the heat from the Nitro strips the Hydrogen from the air, you can't breathe, you can't see, you can't feel anything except the relentless pounding from the shockwaves coming from the car, then it all fades as the car disappears to half track, an eighth of a mile away, in three seconds, you wipe your tears away to see the time and speed on the finish line boards.

I don't know anyone who doesn't love top fuel...

We're on our way home now but we'll put some pictures from the weekend up shortly, needless to say a great time was had by all :)

On 1948 Cartier replica started its journey with the founder member, Louis Brandt, the first workshop was located at Concord replica in Switzerland and the first range of product of this company was precision pocket Hublot replica . The name replica Bell & Ross came out from one customized pocket- watch made for one of their esteemed clients and in later age became the trade mark of the company and a global status symbol. However, after Replica Chopard , in the hands of his sons Cesar and Louis Brandt, the brand Omega was introduced in market and within a few years became one of the globally appraised croum for sale brands, so is of Concord for sale .
In 1930 after some eventful years Rolex Sea-Dweller replica watches brand was merged with Hermes replica and this business amalgamation proved as a great success story in replica Cartier branding. From this time onward replica Piaget started its victorious leaping for success and glory; vintage Breguet watches were introduced in market at this time .These vintage Rolex Air-King watches are still now one of the most sought elegant wrist DeWitt replica watches of the world and one of the favorite items for copy Christian Dior replica watches ..
In and around Second World War II, Glashutte for sale were great in use for army for their excellent accuracy of time. However, there is some other popular replica Jaquet droz watches models from Vacheron Constantin replica watches were introduced in market by this time. Some of these acclaimed Franck Muller replica watches are Longines watches , Concord replica watches , Rolex GMT replica watches , replica Breguet watches , Audemars Piguet replica watches , Rolex Air King watches , Tudor watches , replica Cartier watches , and ebel replica , etc. which are hi-in-demand in replica Omega watches .

This new company was named as Rolex Day Date II replica watches , which was known in later period as Replica Christian Bernard , or replica Rolex GMT in the concerned market. Till then the success of this megabrand is moving ahead unrestrained and undisputed; although high price is a big constraint in purchasing replica Glashutte watches in original, so replica Rolex Masterpiece have become popular for mediocre fashion conscious people.
