For the first time in 10 years the Chevelle won’t leave the shop and make a pass down the track this year!… 🙄🚙💤

It sucks and I’m more than disappointed about it!.. 😏😑 But… There is to much shit this year that makes no time for racing and also there is no real series to make so instead we are trying to finish the trailer, maybe do some updates on the Chevelle for the first time since 2017! 😆
Concentrate uson the Åkes Bil & Motor work shop, have some free time, prepare the racing circus for 2022 and hopefully we will be able to go to England and Santa Pod Raceway and have a real Top Doorslammer series to make here in Sweden / Scandinavia and spend some time with all our awesome friends out there that we miss like hell!.. 😊

Throw back to 2017, a pretty amazing year and the last year we made 5-6 outings and also went up north and made the Northern Swing including Sundsvall Raceway and Pite Dragway with a lot of our Top Doorslammer friends!! 😍

Just look at that scoreboard!! 💪🏻 3.84 second race car!! 😎 I want a real racing summer again and a real series in Top Doorslammer like it was a couple of years ago!… 🤩

I want to make passes like we did that weekend in June at Tierp Arena in 2017! 3.96, 3.89, 3.89, 3.88, 3.88, 3.88 and 3.84 and I want to continue in to the 3.70:is!!… 🤩 I kind of regret that I wasn’t a bit more aggressive that last round but that’s easy to say now!.. 😅🙈
I want to make new personal bests that from that day still is,
0.9563 to 60ft
2.5770@237.26km/h (147.50mph) to 330ft
3.8425@315.24km/h (195.88mph) to 1/8 mile this makes us the quickest doorslammer in Europe and in the world as far as I know running a conventional headed standard bore space Big Block Chevrolet! 💪🏻🤘🏻😎

We did have som up and downs that year also of course but pretty much everything just worked out, everyone did what they should do and everything was awesome and fun! 👏🏻

Thanks to everyone involved that made that weekend possible, fans, friends, family, sponsors and partners! 🙏🏻😍

One more post about the awesome work that the guys at @clearwrapab made 2 years ago on the trailer! 😍 And of course in the last minute because dragracing but they pulled it off really great! 🤩👌🏻 Just see how simple it is when you have an idea how you want it and then you have an awesome group of people that make it come true! 🙌🏻👏🏻🙏🏻 Just crazy great! 💪🏻

Found some pictures from 2019 when the guys at @clearwrapab made some magic with the Chevelle with a really short notice about a day before we were heading to England and Santa Pod Raceway for the Doorslammers! 🤩
I’ve been thinking about making it white on the sides for years and I think it turned out JUST AWESOME!!! 😍👏🏻💪🏻👌🏻

Once again thanks to Micke, Victor, André and Putte for an crazy good customer service that made my dreams come true! 🙏🏻

Two years ago we were up against Wulcano Racing, two doorslammers with complete different power plants! 😃 Europe’s fastest conventional headed std bore space Big Block Chevrolet against Europe’s fastest Hemi on the quarter mile!! 🤘🏻💪🏻👌🏻👊🏻🚙💨
I thought this was an awesome moment to compare a car that got a body made for dragracing and then the other one that looks just like the original car made for cruising down the street at maximum 60mph! 🤣😅 The fat house brick against the tiny arrow! 😁 And this is what makes doorslammer racing so awesome, different cars and body styles for the audience to enjoy! 😎
