Drama for Dave Cherrett as the left rear wheel came off his Model A van at the hit. The van stopped pretty much
instantly and Dave is quite OK. Looks like a halfshaft failure as the wheel was still bolted on to what was left of
the shaft. Almost unnoticed in the other lane Nicole Parker came close to the
Eurodragster.com/ModUrStang Perfect Light Award with
a 0.007 RT.

John Spuffard 6.4990/135.63
0.9563 to sixty, driving through shake, 2.5331 to 330 feet, off the throttle at the eighth 3.7291/189.71.
The FC was moving left and right towards the eighth but Spuff stayed with it until the scheduled shut-off.
I bet that felt good not just for Spuff but for Bob Jarrett and the whole team.
Julian Webb (Split Second Jet Dragster) 6.9359/226.73

Outlaw Anglia qualifying after session 5
Huge wheelie for Andy Bond in the first pair, he had it nicely balanced but the Mustang was heading for the other lane so
he had to shut it off in the end, wrenched it back straight but then shut it off in the second half. Tyre spin again for Gerry
Treit and stopped on the track at about 1000 feet, had to be towed off.
