Well that's that done for 2009 then!

This weekend saw an amazing end to an even better year, yeah, I got knocked out in the second round but what a way to finish, the Sportsman championship went down to the last round of the last race, can't really argue with that!

Well done to everyone for such a great year, lets hope next year is just as good!

185 days until Easter...

Thanks to Pete for sorting me a set of brake rotors for the race car :D

Well after a bit of a fight, and even after admitting defeat then going back I've gotten the damn thing out!

Pics kinda tell the story...

Big hole in the side of the diff.

Which doesn't look much better close up!

Especially when you can see the few gears that are left inside!

Not to worry though, I've acquired the clutch and various bits, already had a spare gearbox so at least I'm not trashing the environment buying a nice new plastic car, reuse, recycle and all that!

This is what everyone loves about Drag Racing...
