We did just warm up the motor and are ready for elimination round 1 in a bit!


We got a sunny Sunday morning here at Sundsvall Raceway!

They added qualifying rounds today before eliminations but we will skip them because I can not see that I will be able to improve on this track with the conditions we have here! It’s just a waste of time and parts!.. We will wait for elimination round 1 and I do not expect to be able to take the car down without getting into tire shake but we need the points so that’s the only reason to do it!

We are instead saving parts for the Top Doorslammer round 5 and the finals in the series at Gardermoen in Norway in about 2 weeks from today!


The Chevelle is ready for tomorrows eliminations!

One more cozy evening here at Sundsvall Raceway! 🙂

Dad and Krille did check the motor after our shaky rounds this weekend and all looks good, I’ve heard that we got two more qualifying rounds before eliminations today / Sunday but I’m not interested because I went here to see if the track is better than what it was when I was here in 2017 and now I have my own opinion about it.

But everything around here when it comes to Sundsvall Raceway is more than great, the facility, the people! 🙂

John makes the Chevelle look good, our Manton valve train looks great as always! And Dennis are getting us dinner with grocery’s from our partner ICA Gärdet!

One more evening with a group of great people! <3

Nope again.

Added a tiny tiny bit of power to the round after our only full pass with a slow 4.28 @ 275km/h this weekend and no, it was way too much!..

I can explain the feeling of driving the car by saying it feels like a brown Volvo 240 wagon on ice! 🙂 Hahaha!!! Pointless if you ask me!

Now some service of the car so it will be ready for the race in Norway in 2 weeks!


First pass down the track this weekend!… I could not imagine that I would need to take out so much power that I just did to succeed with this slow, boring pass!.. But still the car did move around really much so it was still a bit too much.

Next round now!

Nope.

This starts to feel stupid and I would like to say so much but it’s better to be quiet, went into shake even earlier than yesterday! Got angry, did some pedal and went left and right a couple of times because the track and car did not like that…

Guess we will have 2 more rounds today.

Stay tuned.


But thanks to Tee Cee Racing we can borrow their battery pack so we are able to start the car! 😀 <3

So finally we have warmed up the car now!…

And are ready to make a pass when it’s time!


This ain’t for real!.. About to warm up the car and the blower starter broke!…

So we missed the round!..
