Today everything feels good!! :)

Finally it was time to open up our first 3 second champagne and celebrate!!! 😀

E1 win, E2 win, personal best, first 3 second pass!! its been a good weekend for us when it comes to our performance on the car, pretty consistent and I have found a good base line! Total 4 rounds with 4.08, 4.09, 4.00, 3.95 and personal best in some way in every round, speed and time on 60ft, 330ft, 660ft!!

60ft 0.97s, 330ft 2.63@229km/h and 660ft 3.95@303km/h!

A huge thanks to all involved that makes this happen for us!! Our familys, team, friends, partners, sponsor!! You all are the best!!! 🙂

Can’t describe the feeling how good this feels after all trouble and work we been trough this year!

Just awesome!!!!

Nice photos by Tierp Idag!

Leaving Tierp Arena for this time, we will be back in about 3.5 weeks! I think that weekend also will be a good one! 😉

Stupid mistake by me… So no E3!

I made a stupid mistake and forgot to push down the release valve when I pack the chutes… That makes the air leak out with the vibrations from the motor when it’s running… The alarm for low pressure went on when I was going into pre stage and I did not have any transbrake… So I turned the motor of!…

Bad way to end a really good weekend when it comes to our awesome performance yesterday and today!…

My fault, so this is something I have to deal with in front of a mirror… 😉

Really don’t like you right now….

Personal best again!!!

Personal best to 60ft with a 0.97s and personal best to 330 with 2.65s car started to fishtailing 3.0 seconds out so I pedaled a bit out with the chutes and lifted at 3.8s…

We will go out again in about 40 minutes! Stay tuned! 🙂

That was that..

No more rounds here today… Standing here in a really great weather but we can’t be noisy after 6… So one round is what we got today, kind of disappointed because I think they took in way too much cars on this event with only two days, I mean 258 teams is pretty much if you ask me…. We ended up as number 3 in the list after today and that feels good! 🙂

But I just got the info that we will get one more qualifying round tomorrow morning and that makes me happy, I really want to make more passes in the car now, must go below 4.0 and make a 3 second pass!! 😀

Serviced and ready for tomorrow!

Now, dinner time! 🙂
