MSA Pro Modified final

Michel Tooren 6.1093/237.76 def. Bobby Wallace 6.2260/227.76

Bobby appeared unhappy about something, blipping the throttle several times before pulling forward to stage. Michel waited in pre-stage, Annie shook her head as she walked away from seeing Bobby forward. Bobby bumped straight into full stage, as a courtesy to Michel I am guessing. Then Bobby away first 0.0550 to 0.0634, the better sixty 1.0054 with high-frequency shake to Michel's 1.0491. Michel had the quicker eighth 4.0308/187.97 to Bobby's 4.0583/183.92 and took the stripe by 0.1083. Consolation prize for Bobby a new PB speed. Congratulations to Michel and team for coming back from the accident at the Doorslammers, and to Bobby and team on the PB.

Super Street Bike eliminations round 2

Fantastic run for Graham Balchin, by the reaction of his crew I am guessing he has got the Quickest Kawasaki record back from Finland, well done Graham and team! Garry Bowe a no-show for his race with Steve Venables. Another speed record for Ven, 211.10, well done Ven and he is now on an ACU ET record too! Nice one Ven!

Funny Bike eliminations round 1

Lorcan Parnell backs up yesterday's 6.676 for a new ET record, and his 206.93 is a new speed record backed up by yesterday's 218.24. More to come too since Lorcan had to feather the throttle after the bike tried to throw him off around the eighth. So well done to Lircan for holding on to it and well done Lorcan and the team on the records. Stu Crane was in the bleach box but did not start so Len Paget took a troubled bye. Phil Crossley shaking his head before staging, motor smoking, shut it off. New PB for Dale Leeks on his bye, well done Dale!

Comp Eliminator eliminations round 1

Drama in the first pair, which actually would have been a bye as Rene Ehrismann did not show, as George Chiarella's '37 Ford got out of shape coming off the burnout, turned right and nosed into the guardrail about 100 feet out. Start line crew moved instantly and sprinted to George's aid. George OK but taken to the Medical Centre to be checked out as is proper after a head-on.

No reverse for Conrad Stanley so crew and start line crew pushed him back to the line. Didn't faze him, a new best for this car, well done Conrad and team! Also a great pass by Tim Mugridge to take the win, though.

Gearhead Garage Super Pro ET eliminations round 1

0.0071 RT for Thomas Haas in his race with Al Didwell. More than perfect 0.0000 RT fort Rene Jespert in his race with Bob Doyle, well done Rene, and took the win by 0.0004 seconds or 1.09 inches. So far I'd say Rene and Bob the most likely candidates for £50 each for Bob's Photo Finish Award courtesy of Bob Roberts.

Good morning and welcome from Santa Pod for our coverage of the SPRC Summernationals brought to you in association with John Woolfe Racing.

The Webster Race Engineering / Nimbus Motorsport webcam will be on-line broadcasting live video and commentary / Nitro FM feed so long as the track is open. As things stand we will kick off the webcast at about 09:15. Nitro FM are already streaming audio-only; a link is available on the Event Index.

It is another beautiful day here at Santa Pod. A tiny amount of high cloud but it is not bothering the sun at all, again a gentle tailwind.

The plan for today is again live reports and results, pit notes courtesy of Simon, and a photo gallery at the end of the day courtesy of Julian and DD. However, please note that as well as writing the live report and running the webcast Your Reporter is also commentating this weekend so the reports may be a little less detailed than usual. As ever one will do one's best; apparently it wasn't good enough for one nasty idiot yesterday but I venture to suggest that he was outvoted big time by the rest of you.

A big Thank You to Simon, Julian and DD for their hard work in the heat yesterday. You can check out yesterday's pit notes and gallery via the Event Index.

The traditional Raceday Good Morning to our US Correspondent Kathy Hileman who is tuned in from the other side of the Pond, hope you are having a great weekend Kathy. Next up a big Happy Birthday to Gearhead Garage Super Pro ET racer and Eurodragster.com sponsoe Pete Walters. Hello, too, to Sharron Gough, hope that doggie is OK. A big Hello also to all of the Eurodragsterholics out there, a special wave to Kai Plathan and his faithful hound Otto tuned in from Finland, and to our longtime coverage fan Ivar Kolberg tuned in from Norway. A big Hello also to longtime Eurodragster.com supporter, and sponsor of this weekend's Bob's Photo Finish Award, Bob Roberts. Thanks to all of you for your support.

I have a page of notebook full of numbers for records. Steve Venables has already set a new ACU Super Street Bike speed record of 207.24 mph, congratulations again to Ven, and Sean Mills has set a new ACU Comp Bike speed record of 196.39 mph, congratulations Sean, with a higher record of 198.91 mph waiting. Records which are halfway there awaiting back-up are:

  • MSA Pro Modified ET: Andy Robinson 5.867 (existing record 5.882)

This morning we will be starting at 09:20 with Q3 of Hutchinson & Dibley Sportsman ET which couldn't quite be fitted in last night. No-one's fault, circumstances were just against us even with track owner Keith Bartlett's ready and welcomed agreement to extend the racing day. I am sure that you will all agree that the race officials, track crew and safety crew did and do an awesome job and they had a hell of a lot with which to contend yesterday in, let's not forget, very uncomfortable conditions. Had I been in charge we probably would not have got as far as Q2.

Here we go then. Keep an ear out on Nitro FM, or an eye on the webcast, and we'll be back with the news as soon as the wheels start to turn.
