Sorry, only in Swedish!

Lyssna på Marcus Mälströms Racerbilspodden avsnitt 93 på Spotify, Del 1 Andreas Sjödin! (Jag babblade tydligen på bra så det blev 2 avsnitt! 😅)

Kul grej i en podd jag lyssnat mycket på själv då jag känner till många som varit med i den!

Detta blev av väldigt spontant med bara några dagar från första kontakt till inspelning så det är väldigt oförberett, spontant och ärligt och precis så jag ville ha det! 😁

Vi snackar om mig, från början och varför jag håller på med dragracing och sen såklart om Sjödin Motorsport / ÅBM Racing, då, nu och vad som ska komma!

Tack till Marcus för ett kul samtal som väckte många gamla minnen till liv igen! 😃

Klicka på länken i profilen å lyssna vetja! 🤠

Sjödin Motorsport / ÅBM Racing homepage update / Race report, Top Doorslammer exhibition race at Dala Järna Raceway and Dala Street Open! 🚙💨 Check it out! 👀🖥️

Sums up the last event in 2023 at Dala Street Open that also was the first and only with the Chevelle 65! 🤩

We were there just for fun and did not expect the track to be as good as it was for this exhibition race, the plan was just to go there and make some burn outs just for fun to support my home track and motor club SHRA Vansbro - Äppelbo! 🤠

But I ended up to be more than satisfied with the weekend and really happy after 5 rounds in only 6-7 hours! We managed with 4.34, 4.30, 4.30, 4.28 then spun the tires, with a speed between 271km/h to 277km/h and 60ft of 1.05 to 1.06! 🤘🏻

Thanks to all involved this weekend at Dala Järna Raceway! Åke (Dad), Sofi, Max, Krille, Jörgen, Benkt, Katrin, Ludde, Crille, Fredrik, and the three motor clubs that made this possible, SHRA Vansbro-Äppelbo, Borlänge Dragracing Klubb and Big Wheels Malung!

And a HUGE thanks to all of you that bought our 2022 Top Doorslammer Champion Supporter shirt back home at Dala Järna Raceway, we sold A LOT of T-shirts and Hoodies! 😍🙏🏻

Soon I will release the info about what we will do in 2024! In the meantime, look an follow Sjödin Motorsport / ÅBM Racing on our social medias, homepage, Facebook, Instagram and YouTube! 🤓

Stay tuned/ Andreas! 😜

Pictures / album from our fourth outing in 2023, it was a great and fun event at Dala Järna Raceway and Dala Street Open in August! 📸🚙🤩🥳

The best racing weekend for us in 2023 when the world’s fastest conventional headed Big Block Chevrolet made some noise for the first and only time this year and also did visit my home track for the first time in Vansbro for a exhibition race, the plan was to go there and make some burn outs just for fun to support my home track and motor club SHRA Vansbro - Äppelbo!

I did not have any expectations at all on the track but when we went out for a track walk on Thursday evening I realized that this track that they haven’t made a pass on for one year is good enough if I just power down the Chevelle! We made 5 passes in about 6 hours and we started with a 4.34@272 km/h and ended up with a 4.28@277 km/h! 🤘🏻😎

I’m more than satisfied with the weekend and I want to thank all involved this weekend at Dala Järna Raceway! Åke (Dad), Sofi, Max, Krille, Jörgen, Benkt, Katrin, Ludde, Crille, Fredrik, and the three motor clubs that made this possible, SHRA Vansbro-Äppelbo, Borlänge Dragracing Klubb and Big Wheels Malung!

And a HUGE thanks to all of you that bought our 2022 Top Doorslammer Champion Supporter shirt back home, we sold A LOT of T-shirts and Hoodies! 🙏🏻😍

There is a whole album on the Sjödin Motorsport / ÅBM Racing Facebook page for you that want to see more from the event! 🤘🏻🥳

And the Chevelle is in the winter sleeping spot under the cover again after only 5 passes in 2023 at a really fun day at my home track in Dala-Järna! 😁 🚙💨

It took some time after we got it unloaded but with some spirit and expert help from Bänkt and two dinner dates later I finally got the fuel system cleaned out one more time, I did remove the rocker arms so there is no springs under load and I did release the torque on the rod bolts to make sure it can sit for a long time now! 🚙💤💤

As it looks right now the worlds fastest doorslammer with a conventional headed Chevrolet Big Block motor will be under this cover for a good amount of time, it’s been a bit too much of a one man band for a while now and the Chevelle needs a lot of work / service after many years of racing and I do not see that I will have the time, spirit or help needed for it in the near future so it will just sit here in the shop and wait for something to change about this situation….

It must be fun to do something like this and yes it is fun when we are at the track and I would love to make hundreds of passes each year but there is so much more that needs to be made around before and after the race and I have lost the fun part of it!

And there is stuff that needs to be made on the truck and trailer that should have been done for years now so I need to start with that and make sure we have a truck and trailer in the future.

So, no Top Doorslammer racing in 2024, we might go to Dala Järna Raceway in 2024 with it just for fun but it’s way to early now to say if it will happen for real!

Thanks to all of you that made me / us in the team come this far and made it possible to do what we have done so far! 🙏🏻😊

I’m always kind of amazed when taking off the valve covers and looking at the valve train in the Chevelle motor! 😍

The Manton conventional Big Block Chevy rocker arms and 1/2” x .188” wall pushrods are used to take a lot of punishment in my motor with around .950” lift on the valve that ends up with around 1300 pounds of spring pressure, new spring got 550+ pounds at installed height! 💪🏻

On top of that it got 65 pounds of boost and 10000+ at shift rpm and it ends up with the worlds fastest conventional headed Chevrolet Big Block motor in a door car! 😎

2700 pounds, 0,95 to 60ft 3.84@196mph or 315km/h to the 1/8 mile, 5.8813 @ 242.55mph or 390.35km/h on the 1/4 mile! 🚙💨

How bout that! 🤠🤘🏻

One part of the after season stuff that needs to be made is to “service” our Cinderella Incineration Toilet! 🙊

But actually it’s not that bad at all, it a pretty clean work and it just takes some time (if you gonna do it correct) and also something that you can do all by yourself if you are a bit handy! 🔧🔩

This can be the best thing that I got in the trailer and our @cinderella_incinerationtoilets did just celebrate 3 years of using last week and that without any problems at all, how awesome is that!? 😃👌🏻

Like we would call it in Swedish “en skitbra produkt” 🤩🥳
