14:15 Outlaw Anglia eliminations round 1 Wild burnout by Jedd Guy, up on one rear wheel and headed for the guardrail, had a good hold of it. Then in the race with Steve Jedd held a very good, straight wheelie past the Tree. Definitely got a good handle on the car. Nice run for Steve to take the victory. Colin Millar with the bye did a full pull after backing off early this morning and incurring Kirstie's wrath as she was in the shutdown area waiting to get a parachute shot. Superb pass for Cliff Griffin in his race against Mark Bracking.

09:50 JDS Street qualifying after session 2 Improvement for John Hanton to consolidate his #1 spot, more to come as he lost a fair bit of time to tyre shake in the first fifty feet or so.

09:45 Outlaw Anglia qualifying after session 2 The unmistakable bark and rumble from around the corner heralded Cliff Griffin's arrival. Problems for Cliff yesterday so this was his first timed run of the wekend. Fantastic run and straight into #1 spot. Improvement for Mark Bracking but stayed in #4 spot. Next up Jedd Guy, excellent burnout and a superb run, he'll be in the eights before you know it. Steve Wells' first timed run of the weekend after shutting off yesterday, weather-related I think. Straight into the eights, motor sounded to be hesitating just a touch in the second half but straight in at #2. The usual storming burnout by Colin Millar, excellent pass and more to come as the motor hesitated a couple of times in the first few feet. Excellent session from the Outlaws, nice one guys.

Problems for Paul Jordan next run, parts came off the car just before the eighth and a rattling noise from the motor. Matt Attwood up from #3 to #2 with what looked like a pretty lively run, from up here at least.
