Any Drag racing events at the track in Ballykelly this year? Must take a run down to Bishopcourt for a nosey. My project will not be finished until the summer time.

My very good friend Julian Hunt sent me a load of images last night from our trip to the pod last year, we go back YEARS!!!! and have spent many days on the road through Europe together in The good old days. He has stepped away from duties at a well known Vintage VW parts outlet in Southend where we met way back in the early 90's and has turned his attentions to life behind the lens ( and his monumental Gran Tourismo collection ). He is a regular at the startline at Santa Pod and he captures some amazing imagery. Here's a snippet for @stevieturbo , I think you will like them, if you wish to use them anywhere on the web, please make sure you credit Julian with the image
