Why I missed the Dyno day

[BLK 1T]

Gday All
I missed the dyno day on Sat as I was at the bracket meeting at WSID crewing on a "slingshot". Day turned out to be a bit of a waste, only had one run prior to getting rained out. We were 4 cars from the start line for the second run when the rain started.
With some luck there might be some photos attached to this post. Im not good with stuff.

PS give me some feedback whether this is OK and Ill load a couple more.

Seedy - I guess this means the photo worked?
May look funny, but find me a cheaper way to run a 10.xx

Slingshots are some scary rides :D

Dont blow the diff!

Take a close look at the cockpit (yes I know its an appropriate word) shot, extra plate welded over the crownwheel position. Is it strong enough? Have to wait for the diff to blow to find out.

Man you'd need some bloody big brass balls to pilot that sucker for a 10 second run down the quater!!!!

He's standing on the right in car+trailer photo, balls look normal to me from this distance.

So how much does a 10 sec coffin cost?

Ahh Seedy - precisely why I took this photo, seen more sophisticated steering setups on a billy cart. However it does do the quarter in a dead straight line and thats all that counts.
Car + trailer bought for around $10k. Since then small amount of motor work + power glide and diff refresh, paint and various ancillary bits and pieces. Im not paying so Im not totally sure on the $$$$.
