pete barber is a great drifter. Saw him skidding at trax last year. when watching him live, its like he\'s floating, something you can\'t get from videos

We had a great day yesterday!
Pete won the round outright!
Was an epic battle with Pete having to go against Brett Castle\'s Skyline with Chevy V8 in it 4 times,but he won through in the end,then faced Mark Lunney in the final in his 600hp plus Nissan 350Z,and he won that too.
Well done Pete.
Regards
Carl

did he have heat issues? noticed he kept opening the bonnet where they were staging by druids...
 
i got there too late to see the first sessions (despite living five minutes away :2Rolleyes) but the finals were fantastic to watch. that rx7 didn\'t straighten once!

No heat issues, but We had a boost hose come off,and also made a couple of adjustments in order to beat the V8 Chevy blocked Skyline!
