SANTA POD
"Run What Ya Brung!!!"
Sunday 8th April 2001
Santa Pod Raceway, Poddington, Bedfordshire
Another good turnout with approx. 12 GTO's lined up in the queue at one point. We joined the FTO club again for a RWYB session, but there were so many people trying to get onto the strip that it regularly took an hour of queueing to get a turn. This didn't detract from the enjoyment of the day and I managed to have a quick word with Steve Hemming and Dave Hughes, two prominent FTO'ers.
I also, once again, bumped into Rich Jenkins who frequents many Jap car meets - nice to see you again Rich, no doubt our paths will continue to cross! :-)
So, here are a few photo's I took of the day....
