Ben P thumbs a lift to Germany for Das Drag Day.

As I’ve been labeled the ‘Euro show hitcher’ by Ivan @ volksworld magazine I thought the only decent thing to do was grab a lift to Bitburg in Germany in the Auto Techniks ‘Uber bus’ for Das Drag Day #8!  Billed as the final DDD at Bitburg meant the turn out was immense and staying awake for 42 hours straight from Thursday to Saturday morning didn’t faze me one bit.

With 250 racers from all over Europe in attendance there was plenty of horse power fuelled broken English chat to be had. The wheelerdealer barndoor panel ran an impressive 12.2 second run and Outlaw Flat Four member Rudy Olivenca put in a few 9 second passes. As usual the DAS club put on an impressive event and let’s hopes there will be plenty more.
