Team
Bray Ready for New Year As the team's 1st event for the New Year fast approaches, Victor and Ben can't wait to get back on the track. "It has been too long since our last event," Ben said with an impatient grin. "I just want to get the 2nd half of the season started." "I had a great start to the season picking up the Top Qualifying spot and low ET points in Sydney, but unfortunately in Perth I damaged the engine that gave me my 5 second passes."(Ben has rebuilt his damaged 5 second engine and has built an identical bullet for Victor.) "It was a shame that Ben damaged his engine over in Perth but it did answer a question for us that the bigger cubed combination is not the way for us to go" Victor remarked. "We have got 11 other very good car and driver combinations to contend with this week end. That means 5 teams will be spectators on Saturday. I have watched enough Drag racing from the stands over the years and I am not particularly interested in doing that this week end." "I'm still having trouble with my finger that was severed off in the accident at Bathurst. I'm unable to pick up some items due to my inability to get a good grip on them, but lets hope I can punch the old Chevy thought the gears okay. We will be having a much subdued New Years Eve celebrations this year as we need to be fast from the 1st Qualifying session." With current day time temperatures knocking on the door of 40 deg c everybody will need a tune up. This is not usually a pre-requisite. "Troy Critchley has come home to Brisbane for Christmas and I have been able to spend some time with him, and have picked up a couple of interesting tips on how his team in the USA approach racing in hot and sticky conditions," Victor said.
