Today is the first day of this year’s Dala Street Open here at Dala Järna Raceway!
We are getting ready for the first exhibition round here at Dala Järna Raceway! I have a plan of making 2-3 rounds today, first one will be after 12:00 / lunch.
Let’s see if I can do a good combo with the data from 2023 together with the added power to this year!
It’s a bit cold here today, but the sun is up on the sky and helps us heating up the track!
We are having a great warm morning here at Dala Järna Raceway! 🙂
It’s been raining some during the night (let’s call it track wash) 😉
After some breakfast we are going to start getting the Chevelle ready for tomorrow’s exhibition rounds here at Dala Street Open! 🙂 
At Dala Street Open 2024 for some Top Doorslammer exhibition rounds with the Chevelle here at Dala Järna Raceway! 🙂
Me, Sofi and Fredrik are having a great evening here at Dala Järna Raceway after building our pit area here today!
Today we took the long 10 minute drive for our home to the track! 🙂 Wish it could be like that every time! 😉
We are kind of the first team here at the track! :)
The crew have been working on the track all day today, Thursday! And the race won’t start until Saturday! Track looks much better than last year, and last year it was way better than what I assumed it would be!
We did have some pizza dinner here at the track, that’s the good part when being really close to civilization! 😀
The Chevelle is ready to get some service and adjustments tomorrow! Need to do some changes after the weekend at Tierp to fit this weekends track conditions!
It’s soon time to get some sleep here at Dala Järna Raceway! ZzZz
That was a strange round, more about that later!
But I’m happy anyway that we are here and that the car works as good as it does! And I have almost figured out a new tune for it after all the changes I made to it! 🙂
Got loose, went left! Was able to drive through it! Then I started to drift left again and pulled the chutes early at 3.1 seconds!… This weekend is over for us, congrats to Tommy and team for the win!
Let’s pack this up, in rain of course! 😉
Looks like we are having our first elimination round around 2 or so today, so it will be one more day of loooong waiting!.. 🙂
The ladder for today, we got Anders Edh in the first round!
The weather is awesome here at Tierp Arena this morning!
We are ready, just need to make some minor tuning adjustments!
It was time for TD, we got ready to get into the cars and then it was a huge clean up before the first pair!… Heard something about a 1/4 mile oil clean up!…

Then it started to rain, and about 1.5 hour later it was time for us again but!… It wasn’t the same track anymore, it felt like doing the burn out on ice!.. When driving a car like this it’s easy to feel in the car if you got some kind of friction or not between the tires and track.
We ended up in the fifth position of ten cars with our bad misfiring 3.92 round!..
If this would have been a normal race weekend I would have been disappointed! But I’m more than happy to just be here at the track!
Like I said earlier, Wednesday we did not even have a blower to the car, the car was in pieces, nothing around with the trailer, food and much more was unprepared!
And now we in the team are having fun here at the track together in our drag racing family!! 😀
Now it’s dinner time!
Then it’s time for some service and a good nights sleep!
