Sandfly Alley and Race Team, New Zealand

Yes well, burn it up the sandfly crew did just that, boy what a nights racing.




The sandfly crew box ready for ACTION.

To start of with the team lowered a few records, dropped the inline record again just as pony boy was hoping to snatch it away from me, boy that sg+ goes like stink with new oil. Next up was taking the pro mod record of Alan the lawn mower man who had just taken it of pony boy, Paul was none to impressed with his records going west. Then stepped up Mac's tools top fueler, 3 races and dropped the record on each pass, the new cluster gear worked its magic.



The boys waiting pensively for pony boy to finish the ladders. With 6 drivers there was plenty of banter and drinking, Ron the train guy gave us a run down of the future of his knee, Matt the crump went on about his possible new job and buying his old firms ute. Ron also did the honors with a slap up snack of chippies and dip.

Well to the all important Chicken dinners, the 52 chev red lit and got a 4th, The lure got a 3rd, Jungle jim fought for a 2nd behind Pony boy again, and we pigged out with 3 chicken dinners in top fuel, inline and pro mod.

Next week we are back at sandfly alley.

Congrats on 15,000 thread views!

Oh what a night




All ready and waiting, the tension building, a quick look around, glasses in the fridge, beer in the fridge, punishment beer not in the fridge, the air is thick with anticipation



Yes all is good, and the waiting continues!



And where off to the races, its a mad dash and qualifying is in full frenzy, there's yelling and jostling, the gnashing of teeth and flying car parts as the boys get ready.
With the usual 6 drivers some fields were strong but a few are not so popular so these may get dropped.



The high light of the night was wishing Camp mother Grant and mower man Alan a happy birthday, Wendy my wife splashed out and got them a mud cake, very sickly indeed.

So to the racing the sandfly crew did its job in qualifying with top place in Top Fuel, Inline and Pro Mod. During the nights racing we managed to lower 3 records below the mark set last year, i run a book that has the start of year records and the end of year records, its a good read, anyway, records went to Mac's Tools in Top Fuel x2, the Cuda in In Line x2 and the Ghost in Pro Mod x2. The team were very happy with that haul.

Onto the finals and chicken dinners for the Mac's Tools, Ghost, Cuda, Scribble in nostalgia and the Willies in T Jet, what a haul, a great nights racing, next week we are at camp mothers Moonshine Park.

No prep no worries I don't think . They were flying last week just give them a quick little warm up. Don't jump the line and we should be eating good.

with all due respect, what are some of these record E.T.s?
just want to make some comparisons so that I know where I might stand running with you guys on your tracks.
I really enjoy the posts you provide and pictures too.
glad to see guys having fun regularly.

yes well its that time again, were back racing at Mustang Alley due to the ice mans shed being unavailable, he has also passed the opportunity to run the meet.
The sandfly team cars have had some testing but nothing much so we shall see.
