Kicking off the 2017 season.


This weekend is the start of the 2017 ACU drag racing season. With a later than usual Easter there's a moderate chance of the weather being at least reasonable, which would make a change and increase the chance of getting some good runs in. The festival of Power at Santa Pod starts with qualifying on Friday and Saturday, and eliminations on the Sunday.
The bikes all set to go but i've not had chance to fire it up so it'll need final checks at the track.  the only changes really are the replacement ignition, and a new rear tyre, but some changes in setup may necessary depending on track conditions.
The entry is pretty good, with 9 bikes entered, we don't expect too many runs as it's a busy event this one, but the schedule is for 2 each day. You can follow the event (no webcam this weekend) via eurodragster.com, with live reports and end of day galleries.
