Congratulations to Håkan Lundgren for winning the Top 10 and Juhani Jyränkö for winning the Top 20! Both Håkan and Juhani repeated their 2007 winning performances, with Juhani scoring Cal-Look.com’s first three-peat, winning since 2006. The last few years have witnessed the dominance of the European Cal-Look scene, both on and off the track, and this trend continues.
Average Top 10 ET/MPH in 2008 was 10.31 @ 131.30 and average Top 20 ET/MPH was 12.38 @ 107.38! Simply incredible results, and one wonders what the averages may be 5-10 years from now.
ALL FINALISTS need to forward their mailing address to Editor@Cal-Look.com in order to receive finalist dash plaques.
