Excellent weekend!
Shame the weather was so awful on the Saturday, but was a bit better on the Sunday. I've even got sunburn on the top my head and nose

.
I managed to get a 8.77s 0-60, and 16.8 1/4 mile on the strip. That was my first ever go down it, although I did have a few unofficial runs down the runway on the way in

. Sorry I didnt catch you again Dan for another blast down the strip, didnt see you again after I went off for my results.
Also just wanted to say Thanks to Doug for sorting everything out for stand - nice one mate
It was a bit surreal being the ONLY Polo on the stand on the Saturday, bet thats a first for UK-POLOS

At least they put your names down! I'm Mr Unknown unknown!
6th for 0-60 @ 7.09
7th for 1/4 mile @ 15.931
Not great but i had only minutes beforehand had my remap! So a little too much wheelspin, a bad change into 3rd gear and the fact i let off the gas before the finish line

i'm pretty pleased!

At least you lot got on the list

- Although I went in the Polo/Lupo class, I probably should have gone in the diesel class. It still wouldn't have got me on that list though

I thought you said you wouldn't be going down the strip mate, so I wasn't really looking for you in the list
