Andy and the crew finally got back into personal best territory at this weekends MSA Summer Nationals at Santa Pod, as they lap 3 consecutive 6.0's in the right hand lane. This was a crucial achievement after the Main Event's successful but difficult meeting.
It began with a 6.06, number 1 qualifier pass straight off the trailer. After bringing the Stude back to the pits and finding everything in one piece, it soon became apparent that the choices made in the workshop just a week earlier, were the right ones. The Summer Nationals was also an extremely successful weekend for Kev Slyfield and his crew. They ran a new personal best and took home their first ever Pro Modified win.

A couple of weeks after the hetic journey to Hungary and we're faced with the European season opener the Main Event. So its back to Santa Pod for a heavy installment of doorslammer action. With every racers wallet taking a severe beating over the winter to ensure they race harder and stronger than last season, we knew the Main Event wasn't going to be easy. With 29 hot rods on the entry list, to even qualify would be a challenge and we certainly couldn't afford to be one of 13 going home on the Sunday night.
Although the three days of racing was cut down to two, there was still plenty of drama. With some big hitters failing to qualify and the track crew having to dig out the replacement christmas tree, Stefani has tried to capture our weekend in the 2010 Main Event report. |

We have had the honour of being invited to Kunmadaras, Hungary to be part of an exhibition of Professional Drag Racing cars this year. There will be four Pro Modified cars in total as well as other Professional classes such as Top Fuel. We will be racing with Graham Ellis (UK), Mats Eriksson (SWE) and Fast Freddy (SWE).
Andy and the team are very excited about being invited, especially being only one of 4 Pro Mod cars from across Europe where there are up to 45 competing cars. The Studebaker has always been a crowd pleaser and we are very proud to help promote the FIA Championship at this new track.
We will be sure to post a report and photos after this takes place in early May. |
