Wow...how long has it been since I updated this page?....Firstly happy new year to all the team supporters and fans.I hope you had a great holiday and you're all looking forward to 2005. One of the main reasons for no updates is of course the World Street Race.As most of you know this is a race between UK,Canada and the USA for the title of "worlds fastest real street car".Believe me when I say that all of my time is being taken up with this project.First a trip to Orlando and then over to the PRI show in Indianapolis to search for sponsors for the race.Then rebuild and dyno the engine,rebuild the car..not to mention the business.There really hasn't been any time to do anything else.Hopefully the fruits of those labours will be there to see shortly with some announcements on the WSR site... www.worldstreetrace.tk As for the CCSE 2004 you'll know that we finished 3rd(again).We were only 40 points behind Splinter,but behind never the less.It's a shame that what was being built up as the closest championship to date ended up being a damp squib...but that happens having drag racing in the UK..... So,what does 2005 hold for the team? No Problem raceway,Belle Rose,Louisiana is first on the list on March 12th and 13th.Unfortunately that date means we won't be back in time for the Thunderball at Santa Pod as it's only 2 weeks after the USA race.This means we won't be contenders in Street Eliminator this season.This will give us chance to do selective S/E meetings,but also give us time to do the meetings we've missed for a couple of seasons.The Main Event and Euro Finals are 2 of those meeting on the list.We haven't been to those since 2002 and I really feel we ought to be.So it'll be Super Pro for those 2 meets for sure...I have also entered the Vauxhall in the "kings of Europe" ( www.kingsofeurope.net ) event in Belgium on June 25th and 26th.This is an event to find Europe's quickest street legal car.The rules for this are a lot easier than S/E,they allow ET streets and race fuel.If necessary I'll fit some ET streets to the car but I plan on running in S/E trim. Anyway,that's it for now.I hope I'll see some of you in Louisiana or at one of the 2 tracks in the UK.Maybe I'll see you in Belgium?As always come up and say hello at the track if you're there.................. ANDY.
