Thanks TT,
I couldn't remember exactly when I took them,it was one one of the first Pod meets I went to(August 68 was the first) didn't manage more that a couple of meets a year then- it was a long way from Newcastle!
I think the motor was an AJS badged Villiers Starmaker comp. unit-only saw it at the Pod at that meeting,shame it was a great bit of engineering.

Here's some interesting shots of Dragwaye which we saw this year at Dragstalgia.

They were all taken in 1970 at Duxford. The first three show it at a quarter mile sprint with a blower and the next three at a kilo sprint with a turbocharger fitted...

Never knew it was fitted with a turbo,all the previous photos I've seen were with the blower.
