Do they not offer seperate classes for n/a classes & power add classes?
What's the particulars where you guys run? For instance length, elevation above sea level, type of surface, etc.
Congratulations Keith, that's mighty good runs.

Dan - the course is not much above sea level being in Suffolk, close to the sea in a very flat part of the country. We had a mile run up then a speed trap. The course is an old world war two fighter base runway but in good condition. Usually its quite windy being near the North Sea. When I said n/a I meant no nitrous, no turbo, pump petrol. My 1270 dyno's mid 190's, 64" wheelbase, slammed but I would like it lower but the sump etc etc. Good to hear from the USA and you guys acheivements. Keith

Maxton is close in 1 respect! World War II Army Air Corp Base where they trained "Glider" Pilots. Horrible condition and not much wind!

I saw Bergie's video of Maxton last year. You guys are brave! Don't reckon we want to make the trip over. Like to come to Gainsville to watch though. Keith and Lorcan

VH,
actually, MMike taught me so well I am now quicker than him (for now)!
MM is a long standing member of TFA, BUT sadly Mad Mike is NOT yet over 50 yrs old (and won't be for a long time) thus he is not yet eligible for TFA's AARP chapter membership.
Since EZ & I formed TFA in 2001, I have been pretty lonely at the TFA AARP chapter meetings; EZ insn't 50 so it was just me  ).
Now VH comes on the scene with EXCELLENT qualifications for TFA (270#!!!), and WELL over 50!
Vincent: Welcome to TFA AARP!
