Great pics Jon.. any idea what times Alan is getting out of the Dragon now? Looks like it's hooking up well

I've just found out that he was trying out a new sequential gearbox in the car so was testing launching from 1st,2nd and 3rd gears, I think he went into the high 12s in the end Nick.

thanks Jon.. nice to see it's still being used and developed and a year off 50...

Nick you got me thinking that we see the car out so much that we take it for granted really.
I think we neglect the fact that this car and the ex Malibu Express rail are the only 2 cars from the early days that's still running today.
Of course it's just as important as any other piece of history we have left and
as it's older Brother gets all the attention I thought I would post some extra pictures of the old girl

yep, agreed... nice pics... and there's Bob Hawkins Time Traveller as well of course

And I am waiting for Bob to get himself a modern chassis so I can get on and recreate the car as it was when I had it at the beginning of the '70's... (before I get too old!)

Thank you and the track crew for making it possible for me to race

Does anyone know who this belongs to (turned up at the Halloween weekend), and its history if any! There were some part scratched off Super Pro numbers on the rear windows.
