00:00I'm Shelly and I'm Stacey and we're down at Midcoast Drags and we are having the most
00:10amazing time.
00:11It's such a good turnout.
00:12The weather is absolutely superb.
00:14Hi I'm Adam, President, what a crackin' day here today.
00:29Taree lookin' good, heaps of awesome cars, great people, spectator facility packed.
00:38What more can we want?
00:51I just went in the first race and spun the wheels the whole way, didn't really feel any
00:57good.
01:04We're here at the drag strip having a great time, what are you having, a good time?
01:05Yep, I think my dad's the best driver in the whole place.
01:06Awesome day, put on by a great group of people, just awesome to get the old Falcon out and
01:07be able to give it a bit of a run.
01:08Yeah, I reckon I can drive better than dad to be honest.
01:32No, I can drive way better than him.
01:34No you can't.
01:35I could easily drive better than him.
01:38I can tell and they're dreamin'.
01:39We've come down here to Taree Drag Racing and we've brought the Speedflow drag car down
01:48here, but they reckon there's some reason it's too fast for it here, I don't know what's
01:52wrong with it.
01:55Check this guy's last race out.
01:57Dad was great.
02:00My car was running really well, but unfortunately I took off a little bit too early, I was super
02:06keen and I missed the green light by .05 of a second.
02:18This one's racing, it's done one so far, it's going pretty good, this car's not like reaching
02:25full boost, which is a bit of a shame, but hopefully we can sort it out.
02:30The track's getting warmer as well with the sun coming out, there's a bit of waiting around
02:33there until they land this plane apparently.
