Q1 delayed!

Something happened out on the track so Q1 are delayed! Not sure what it was.

But we are ready to go when it’s time!

And Katrin are preparing some lunch during the time so we can eat when we get back from the round!

Ok, let’s do this! 🤠

It’s Friday and time for The Doorslammers! 🥳

We got open testing from 9:30 to 4:30 today before the late night qualifying starts at 5:30! 
I’m looking at getting 2 test hits and we will probably go out after lunch around 1:00 today for the first soft test just to get some early numbers on the car to see if the changes I made on it is done in the right direction! 👀

Stay tuned! 🚙💨

And me and Daniel have finally arrived at Santa Pod Raceway in England after a 44-ish hour long trip from the ÅBM shop! 🚛💨⛴️

Now 2 hours of sleep and then roll into the track and start set up our pit area and get things ready for the weekend! 🤩🥳😴😴😴

2 good days of traveling for me and Daniel from the ÅBM to Malmö, ferry to Travemunde then through Germany, The Nederland’s, Belgium and to the harbor in Dunkerque France! 🚛💨

Where we are right now to take the midnight ferry over to the UK! 🇬🇧

So far everything have went pretty smoothly and we have just got some minor issues with the truck and trailer, just small stuff that we have been able to fix, customs at the French border was something I was a bit worried about but that also worked out without any issues! 😃

We will arrive in England about 1 after midnight and will probably continue our trip directly to the UK customs that hopefully will work just as good as here in France so we can continue to Santa Pod Raceway and arrive there and start build our pit area tomorrow morning and get ready for the Doorslammers this coming weekend! 🤠🥳🤩

See you soon at Santa Pod Raceway! 😁

After around 160 hours in the shop the last 8 days trying to get work stuff done and the racing circus ready to leave for Santa Pod on Monday next week, it’s finally time to leave the ÅBM shop way delayed and heading for Ludvika to drop of the rig and then directly home to Vansbro for something really important! 🤩

Celebrate the love of my life and best friend Sofi that’s turning 40 years young on Monday! ❤️🎈 When I’m in the Scania on my way to England!
So, 2 days home relaxing some and having a good time and then back to Ludvika on Sunday and load up the Vette and the missing parts around it, trying to organize the trailer a bit because it’s ha HUGE mess right now…. 🤯

After that back to the ÅBM shop and then leave for England on Monday!

Stay tuned! 🤓
