Welcome to ÅBM Racing

The work on the bus have been standing totally still since the middle of May, and then we I lost half of the team and have been putting a lot of money in the Chevelle, my race license and some other dues I did put the bus to the side.. AGAIN….!!!!

But last week Max did come up with the crazy idea “can I do something on the bus” And I really don’t know what is done or not on it because it is about four months since I touched it the last time….
I have been thinking about scrapping it and buy something else, but it feel wrong after all the money I spent on it…

But maybe there’s hope for it now again anyway..!? 🙂

Time to sleep..!

 

Second elimination run was against Niclas Andersson in The Old 51, I got the car in pre stage and in stage and then I could not see the tree… So I released the clutch when I saw that The Old one started to move… Niclas 0.535sec against my 1.073sec, we got a pretty bad 60 ft with 1.073 (have been running 1.04-1.05 all weekend, Niclas ran 4.189sec against my 4.237sec and he was over the finish line just 0.549sec before me! Could have been a really tight race if I could see the tree…
But I am more then happy with the weekend here in Norway! Started with a lot of rain, a lot of sun, more rain, sun again, 7 runs in the car, won my first elimination run and got a new personal best!! So I am really happy! 🙂

Time slip from the last run!

 

The car felt really good of the line and then a little loose in the rear end, I did pedal a couple of times and then on it again! Made it with a 4.67sec @ 242km/h and 1.04 to 60 ft 🙂
