Unfortunatly i have managed to get a cycle helmet, so Winnie will not be putting in an appearance  :P ;D

Have made space, put C5 in, charged battery, and looking forward to tomorrow.

All those that are going, see you in the morning  :)

Had a great day at Santa Pod in the sun  :)
The sprint  / slalom track was fun, and i think i came away with the quickest standard C5 .... the 24v were just too quick for me though ;D  I did try to go even quicker, but when you have to stick your foot out to stop it tipping, it's probably time to slow down  ;D

Was great to meet up with everyone, and well done to Dave for 2 excellent runs down the black stuff in the C5000.  I didn't take many pics, but others did and i'm sure they'll be on here later.

Made a change for it not to rain, and with the Street Nationals on, there was constant drag racing all day.

And as usual, Fireforce put in another superb performance .... that's one quick car  ;D

Great day out yet again this year at Santa Pod - some serious competition taking place on the sprint track with some scary two wheel moments experienced by several of us - Great to see a good number of c5alivers - Plod had his 'Rambo' C5 which really looks the part (even more so after his of road mud moment !) - Minidaz recorded a very impressive time in possibly the fastest standard C5 ever - Electric dave as always impressing the crowds and the commentator with his 57mph run down the drag strip - and Karl well he was media king for the day having to be dragged away form the many interview crews battling for his appearance  :) ;) :D ;D -  Goldfinger had a good maiden voyage in its new 24v set up - one slight moment when it melted a wire after changing batteries but soon back up and running - next mod upgrade the wire for better current handling Matt loving the extra speed on his Birthday adventure- Great to be able to see all the many different vehicles there on the day and also great to see Retro Andy and family popping by and joining the fierce competition on the sprint track  ;) ;)- all in all a great day out - if you haven't been yet I recommended it - Hopefully Plod has some photo's to share -now of to the shed for next years mods.............................................................
