Many years ago we had Stuart Turner as the guest speaker at Hagley's Dinner Awards Presentation.

It's a AA/FX class car - the pre 'Funny Car' class, with huge engine set-back. Exploding transmission components cut through the fuel line and, hey presto, an inferno...

Taken many moons ago by a young Bootsy, on film, no doubt suffering from the night before - I was a KS groupie even back then. If only I had have followed the advice sign written on his bonnet
