Rain.

The weather forecast for today did say rain and around 07:00 it started to rain like crazy, it stopped after a while and started again around 08:00… It does not rain right now but it’s dark, cloudy, cold and wet outside. They are working on the track all the time, will let you know when I got more info.

Time to make her ready!!


It have been raining pretty much all day since 07:30 this morning to for about 1 hour ago… But now the sun is here and the crew have been doing all they can to keep the water off the track during the rain, we did just get the info that the track will be ready around 15:30 and we will be out for our first round at 17:00 somewhere, and hopefully we will get one more round around 19:00.

Done!!! A huge thanks to Mats Brag for helping us with the welding! 😀


The rain have stopped for now, they said that track will be ready in about 2-3 hours.. We’ll if the sun comes and starts to make some heat in the track I think we will have problem with water that comes up through the track surface just like always here at Gardermoen. Think it will be a long day today like I said!

The weather forecast for today did say rain between 06:00-12:00 and for about 30 minutes ago it started to rain like hell!… I got a feeling that this will be a long long day!
Stay tuned.
