Easter Thunderball - j90xxx - 15-04-2011
Andre has kindly allowed me to promote our charity Drag Racing Team. (Thank you, Andre.)
Those who don't already know, we are racing this year (and last) to raise awareness for Multiple Sclerosis.
Details are on our website: Racing For MS
The first event of the season is at Santa Pod Raceway, near Wellingborough, Northamptonshire next Fri, Sat, Sun, Mon. (That'll be Easter, then...)
Full details and prices at: SantaPod
You could have the pleasure of meeting me :wave:
Thats worth the admission price on its own :thumbsup:

Wishing you all the best from the team here! Let us know how you get on, fingers crossed for some glorious weather.
If you are even half as good as you are at our Game Section racing games, it'll be a breeze

Good luck matey, your hobby sounds awesome.
RE: Easter Thunderball - j90xxx - 16-04-2011
Thanks guys,
Obviously looking to improve on last year where we finished 5th in the UK and 10th overall (out of 50+ in our class!) and that was our first season.
The important goal is to educate and raise awareness for those suffering, on a daily basis, from Multiple Sclerosis, and of course to raise some much needed funds.
My partner, Melanie, was diagnosed with MS seven years ago, and her story is on our website. Please find time to read it; explains alot.
Her story is on the home page, above the Team picture. http://www.racing4multiplesclerosis.com
Thank you Andre and the Forum for your support.
Martin.

Santa Pod is a brilliant day out. If you have never been you can't imagine the noise and the speeds that these guys manage. Just watch the weather forecast as they don't play in the rain, understandably.
All the best for the meet and it would be great to see the World's fastest forum sticker on the car one day!
RE: Easter Thunderball - j90xxx - 16-04-2011
Good thinking, Chris.
Andre, we would love to put a Forum sticker on the Race Car.
157mph is sure to make it the fastest sticker.
Unless someone works for British Airways, or the RAF!
Make sure the glue is up to the job....
