NSA Bike Shootout qualifying session 4

John Hobbs 10.3245/137.37, best run of the weekend for him, Dave Clee in the other lane broke. Pause for cleanup.

On the restart Graham Sykes on the Mistral Triumph 750cc suffered loss of power along the track to 24.934/37.42, then Colin Fallows (Super Cyclops) on a solo 11.874/120.12 as Matt Norman with Conquest 2 had problems after starting up on the rollers.

Then first appearance for Terry Homan on Ramrod from the 1960s, 12.956/82.57 v Tim Howell on his supercharged BSA Lightning 11.944/114.76. Followed by Ray Law with his 1000cc Triumph as ever brought to the line on a dolly, 10.858/134.15 strong run. Pause for track cleanup.

On the restart Matt Norman on Conquest 2 12.510/106.20. Then drama for Jan Honee as the Jawa moved forward under power as Jan was climbing on it following a post burnout check, Jan being thrown off it against the wall by the Christmas tree as the throttle blipped, after which the bike went down the track on idle, continuing until after the finish line when it made gentle contact with both right and left walls. Jan who was winded by the incident but alert and conscious was attended to by medical and taken to hospital for a check up.

Dragstalgia Cannonball qualifying round 3

Qualifying positions coming into this round against each driver name.

Tim Garlick #1 6.1777/228.14 v Tony Betts #4 8.3958/108.48 . Tyre shake for Tony and off the throttle after the car wanted to go left. Incrementals 1.0590 and 4.0636/187.28 for Tim, 1.0580 and 4.5081/125.52 for Tony.

Robbie Grabham #5 7.1353/194.70 v Adam Clayton #12 7.9127/153.68. Best run to date for Adam, still on a bounce but got back on the throttle on to go to the finish under power, possibly in low gear still, cudos to Adam and the team for the big improvement! Incrementals for Robbie who was consistent 1.1057 and 4.6207/153.56, Adam 1.2583 and 5.0154/147.74. Pause for clean up in Adam's lane, all that bouncing likely to have caused fluids to spill.

Adam Gleadow #11 8.2929/154.68 v Joe Bond #3 6.7030/212.86. Pair of second generation racers, Joe on another great run meaning Bob Hawkins will need to better 6.73 to get to the final. Incrementals for Joe 1.1495 and 4.4041/170.15, for Adam who had cylinders out 1.3980 and 5.3779/139.84.

John Hale #10 6.6251/215.14 v Steve Johnson #6 8.8139/124.56. Better run for John and getting up to speed, incrementals for him 1.1298 and 4.3737/171.59, Steve with tyre shake and 1.1884 to 60ft and 5.2915/116.57 to half track for him.

Bob Hawkins #2 6.7303/193.04. Bob needed to run 6.73 to get in the final, otherwise it will be Joe Bond against #1 qualifier Tim Garlick. Bob achieved it by 3 thousandths of a second. Incrementals for Bob, 1.0315 to 60ft and 4.3075/167.92 to half track.

Wild Bunch Q&E Combo round 1

Bradley Cooper closer to dial than Rich Butcher, Bob Morgan, with a bee theme going on, over Jim Tanner, Chris Hartnell closer to dial than Bobby Wright, perfect ET for James Auld against Steve Garlant, well done James!

Steve Field closer to dial than Mark Hartnell, same for Callum Swinchatt over Pete Brown, Andy Clifford broke out but first against Wayne Colliver, same for Rob Brown against Steve East, same for Paul Tarry against Luca Govoni (results based on average close to dial).

Alan Lloyd on a bye followed by Alan Loten over Andy Jackson. Liz Malcolm over Phil James, Tim Roy red lit against Dan Wilson, new PB for Keith Crampton 9.426/142.93 over Graham Rawlings. Bye for Steve Heaven, great to see the car back after transmission problems yesterday. Another checkout pass for Ruaridh Hart in the Opel GT Funny Car which looks immaculate.

Custom Car Invitational RWYB session 1

Pair of rat rods to start with, Stuart Smith 10.138/129.79. Then straight into eliminations.

09:15

Good morning and welcome to day 3 of our coverage of Dragstalgia from Santa Pod Raceway. The weather is perfect today, not a cloud in the sky and temperature already at 19C and forecast to rise to 26C. The wind is a negligible 7mph, and density altitude is expected to be 1000-1800ft.

We saw some great qualifying yesterday with the fields now set for Nostalgia Superstock, Gasser Circus, Outlaw Anglia and Old Skool Stockers. There will also be further sessions in Supercharged Outlaws, Wild Bunch and Willys Wars. Also look out for the special event awards to be made at the end of day and the British Drag Racing Hall of Fame auction which will take place in the Marquee and we'll report the results of in the news in a few days time.

Hi to all Eurodragsterholics who are following the coverage. We thank Kieran for a gallery of photos from the well attended event at Dakota Raceway in Devon from yesterday, and also say hi to Wendy Baker who is in the pits here prior to making a run today. Team member Chris Eyre said yesterday "We are trying our absolute hardest to get the car together. The pile of parts is now car shaped and we are just running through it all now. All being well fingers crossed for tomorrow." Good luck to Wendy and the other Cannonball competitors who put on such a great show yesterday.

Happy Birthday for today to former Street Eliminator racer Gary Gooding and sometime commentator Paul Venners who returned to the mic at last weekend's European Bug-In from Chimay, Belgium, we hope you have recovered Paul!

Come back at 09:30 when the action starts.
