VW Pro qualifying session 2

Paul Jordan up from #7 to #3 second pair. 0.0091 RT for Dave Crowhurst next pair, latest tilt at the Eurodragster.com / Bad Habit Racing Perfect Light Award, and up from #9 to #3 into the bargain. Alex Knott next to make a move, #13 to #6, bit of a move in the shutdown area too but had a hold of it. Big breakout for Carl Goldsmith, 10.9955 on an 11.48 dial-in but his first ten, on top of the crash at the Festival of Power, I'd say he's bounced back. Well done Carl! Dave Bridge up from #7 to #2 with the last run of the session.

Tim Garlick followed Outlaw Anglia with a pass in the Apache Nostalgia Funny Car. Huge tyre shake past the Tree, off the throttle and really had his hands full as the car was up on one wheel headed for the guardrail. A great driving job to keep it shiny side up.

Good afternoon and welcome from Santa Pod Raceway for our coverage fo Big Bang brought to you in association with John Woolfe Racing.

The Webster Race Engineering / Nimbus Motorsport webcam will be on-line and broadcasting live video and commentary / Nitro FM audio so long as the track is open each day. Thanks to Doyousee.me for the provision of streaming services.

Sun and cloud, mainly sun, here at Santa Pod but quite chilly with a gentle tailwind. We have had a good day's Run What You Brung but now the track is being readied for qualifying which commences at 16:00.

Steve Ashdown put in the first of today's Top Fuel Dragster licencing passes just before the lunch break. This run scheduled for the eighth. Nicely-controlled brief burnout. 0.9115 to sixty, shake and tyres started to blackstripe and Steve pedalled at about 150 feet. More shake then off it at about 300 feet. 4.1667/131.76 at the eighth and 6.1418/108.48 at the thousand. Steve's launch managed to crash the webcam PC, the first time a Top Fueller has ever done that.

Steve got to about 250 feet before the shake kicked in on his second pass but he drove through it. 0.9368 to sixty, 3.5564/210.65 at the eighth and off the gas. 4.6821/193.78 at the thousand. The launch crashed the webcam PC again, we'll have to have a think about whether its new location is as good as we thought it would be.

On the subject of PC failures I really wish some people out there would stop behaving like spoiled children and realise that we do not crash the PC on purpose. On the up side we must say a big Thank You to David Anniwell of SPRC's Tech Crew who was able to diagnose and fix the webcam PC when it suffered a hardware failure at lunchtime. Had David not been around then I am not sure that we would have had a webcast for the rest of the weekend so a big thumbs-up to him.

Tune back at 16:00 and we'll bring you all the qualifying news.
