The Open house event in Houston had one particular highlight for me in
particular..... A trip to the drag strip where DMCH had a couple of their
modified DeLoreans including a black Auto with wheels similar to those of a
Ferrari F40. One owner had a April 1981 with a Camaro muffler and that
sounded awesome. I was lucky enough to be able to drive all of the above
thanks to James Espey and the owner of the Camaro muffler DMC whose name
now
escapes me.
I set the fastest 1/4 mile of us Brits until Martin 'lead foot' Gutkowski
beat me by one hundreth of a mile per hour in the closing minutes.
I would like to get an idea of numbers for a similar event that could be
held at:-
Santa Pod
Podington
Wellingborough
NN29 7
Bedfordshire
It could be an overall spectator event for everyone and a chance for those
who think they have the quickest of the DeLoreans to prove it.
