    I know! It has rained pretty much non stop over here for a few weeks but luckily the hot rod gods took pity on us and provided decent weather for this weekend.

    Andy Frost just ran a 7.5 @ 192mph in his street driven '72 Vauxhall Victor at this event. Car runs treaded tyres and a full exhaust system.

    Google Red Victor 2 if you want to see more of it. Doesn't really fit in on this forum.

    i believe it`s even taxed and tested for street use.....that guy is a legend.
     
  7. I love the use of the Thames grill shell on the Pickup, but a bit of an odd use of a 3 window roof on the roadster! It looks like hot rodding is alive and very well thank you in the UK. Cheers

    Load your photos up to Imageshack. They should be okay there.

    Believe me, it rained on Friday. I got soaked through driving there in the touring.
