But first some drizzle, of course… 😉

Let’s see what the stuff I put in will do when it’s time!

Time to stand on the gas pedal a little bit harder today! 😉

The schedule for today!

Almost ready!

But first breakfast!

What a weekend so far, plan in Q1 yesterday was to continue from our 6.04 from last weekends semifinal but instead gremlins with ignition issues and worn down pushrods and adjuster screws, driver mistakes etc etc during Q1 yesterday and Q2 earlier today…

But now in the last round in Q3 it finally worked (with just a little misfires..)

FIRST FUCKING FIVE SECOND PASS in our Swedish Self-Built Bad Ass Top Doorslammer!!!! 🙂 5.9745 @ 238.62mph or 384.02km/h!!!

Can’t thank everyone around enough for making this possible, team, family, sponsors, partners, Santa Pod Raceway for giving us a track that I can throw all I can on and still get down it!!!

And a huge thanks to Keith Bartlett for inviting us and understand that our kind of cars are entertaining for the crowd paying money to see drag racing!!!

Still we have some small ignition issues but the gremlins starts to leave the car now! Now some service and then tomorrow we got two more rounds of qualification were I will give the track all I can to to all I can to go 0.0766 seconds faster and become the worlds fastest standard bore space Big Block Chevrolet and with conventional cylinder heads (not big chief style) I mean how hard can it be? Right!? 😉

#awesomeness

They moved our round to get us more time to service after Q2, it’s we after a couple of bikes and 2 pair of fuel funny car!

But… first some rain!…

Better but still with ignition issues, pushrod issues, and driver issues that messed up on the three and was off the throttle way to early….

Soon time for Q3!

It great weather, track is good and we are just waiting to be called down for qualification round number 2!

Below is the schedule for today, Saturday!

The sun is trying to break trough! 🙂

Soon time to warm up the motor and get ready, 1.5 hour left until we are told to go down to the starting line!

After some control of the car, cleaning out the chute that was melted into the left rear brake disc…. Repairing some lose stuff in the distributor that caused the misfire…. and checked trough the motor after the oil suction fitting cracked we fired up the car a couple of hours ago and everything is just fine for tomorrow’s second qualification round! That session starts at 10:30 and we are going out directly after all the FIA / pro classes!

Happy again! 🙂
