That's a great image. Thanks for taking the time to look. Which magazine did the photo originate John.

Which issue of National Drag Racer as I was looking through all my issues on Thursday. Guess I didn't look hard enough but great find all the same.

I have just received the entry list ahead of this weekend’s Outlaw Anglia round at the Nostalgia Nationals. There’s a full field of 16 cars which includes all the usual suspects; Cliff Griffin, Colin Millar, Al O’Connor, Steve Wells, and Richard Colby. Good to see that Matt Cooper’s new toy is on the list being a local racer to the track but I’m wondering what car Ginner is driving this weekend?

Also Michelle Barlow will be taking on her second event in the space of two weekends, but no Paul ‘The Guv’ Wright. I’m I guessing that Paul hurt something in the semis at the Shakey Super Pull. After all the Alco Pop ran a 7.97 in Sunday’s eliminations. Jed Guy is also making a welcome reappearance after making contact with the starters block 12 month’s ago. New car? Not sure but I’m sure that someone on here will put me straight! :D

So far Barry I have lists for the Supercharged Outlaws, Outlaw Anglia and Gasser Circus. I have a list for all the drag bikes but no background info as of yet but I'm hoping that either Phil or Keith Lee will pick up on this one for us. its shaping up to be a great event as usual. :D
