The tractor would have made a fantastic Slow Car Club entry, but never managed a full run down the strip. It was there to clean the track surface. |

A buggy with an un-sprung rear axle was remarkably quick, covering the quarter mile in around 12 seconds. |

The Darkside does have more power! This Beetle was fitted with a Subaru turbo engine in place of the more traditional flat four.

The Renault 5 that had been putting in impressive 12 second quarter mile times packed up after dropping the insides of the gearbox onto the track. The car has a 2 liter turbo engine, and the owner had been hoping to drive it home. |

The Mini was being raced in standard condition as part of a before and after comparison. The owner said the final spec will depend a lot on budget, but a turbo is under consideration. |
 |
There were 3 '68 Dodge Chargers at the event. Amazingly they were running 13.5 seconds from stock. Not bad for a 1.6 tonne car. |
