  • Jap Show Finale @ Santa Pod 2008

    WELL! From the pictures, and the reports i heard from the event – it rained – A LOT! And this is always going to have a negative effect on any event held at Santa Pod as the main focus of the events at pod are usually drag racing – and that aint much fun in the wet!

    But our hardcore staff member OllieWestwood and his crew battled the rain and got some photos for us all anyway.

    Good work Ollie! 🙂

  • USC 2008 @ Santa Pod

    Thats right folks, another BHP packed show at Santa Pod. Everything for the modified and performance car enthusiasts in ONE show. Drifting, Drag Runs, Dance Tents and Delicious crazy udder milkshakes (they best give me a free one for that! 😛 )

    All in all an amazing show, with a few crap bits of weather over the weekend, but it held out long enough to burn lots of rubber, and use lots of petrol!  🙂
