First testing.

This weekend we did 4 demo runs at a non prepared regular racetrack during the American Day Festival.

1st run was bad, cold track, cold tires etc. Second better and then the 4th run was real good. But no time slips because the timing equipment did not work. But it felt and it looks very fast. Watch the vid.

Preparing for next weekend.

Next week we will give a demo at the American day festival in Zandvoort. We use that to do some testing. Hopefully the setup change of the 4-link will work.

We also started the engine for the first time this year, and no problem. click, start….

Some photoshop practising for making T-shirts?

 

 

 

 

New owner picked up the Vega.

Just some pics taken with my new camera.

They are coming to take him away….

Next week the buyer will come to the Netherlands to pick up the Vega and bring it to Sweden, where it will continue her career.

In the meantime we are doing some repair work on the Taunus, little accident happened in the garage.

 

New tires

New tires for the Taunus. The previous set did make about 20 miles….

Starting the Vega

Today we started the Vega after it stood still for a long time. It started at once. No prolemos at all.

Bye Bye Vega

The Vega is recently sold and will go to Sweden. The guy who bought it raced a Vega funny car in those days. Now he is re-entering with my Vega. We picked up the Vega from its storage and now it is standing next to the Taunus waiting for the travel to Sweden. Bye bye Vega, have a good time there in Sweden. We will miss you!

4-link

Last week we were still busy with the 4-link suspension (and other things, like the solenoid shifter). Next week we will put the Taunus on weight scales and make a proper setup of the 4-link suspensioen, with the help of Stepaside Dragrace Parts.
