Tooled up: chainsaws go racing

The marriage of power tools and motorsport is a union that has given Men In Sheds a raison d��tre, and one that largely excites our TG fizz gland.
So this weekend�s cannily titled Power Tool Drag Racing Championship has got us fizzing into a frothy lather. Power Tools! In mini-dragsters!
Teams will compete in the annual Somerset showdown where drivers pilot mini racers powered by chainsaw, disc cutter and leaf blower engines.
Reigning champs Toolstation � whose �Bolt Lightning� three-wheel dragster produces a biblical 36bhp and does over 75mph � are looking to cut through the opposition. We used the word �cut�, see, because �Bolt Lightning� is powered by six disc cutter engines. That kind of canny wordplay costs money, y�know�
Last year, Toolstation did the 100m drag strip in just 8.6s at an average speed of 26mph.
FIA calling for more money invested in grass-roots motorsport? This is it, chums. Get yourselves down to the Fleet Air Arm Museum in Yeovil this weekend to see competitors get drilled�
