Well, at least i got a 10.96 time slip, but the 60 ft was too good to be true: 1,18!
I had a very quick reaction in the chassis and llifted the front wheels over the 60 footer.  Sad


The good thing was that I made an 11.29 -116 mph  the run before with a 1.51 60 footer!

The weekend at Scandinavian Cal Look classic in Norway was awesome. Loads of cool lookers and a super sticky track.
Big thanks to Morten, Richie Webb, JHU, Mags, Kobus and everyone else for a nice company and I will definitely be back next year.

As this was the last race for the season for me I made a video with some clips:

I heard it was impossible to run those numbers with E85.  Grin  Doesn't that count as pump gas?  Are you sure you're not slipping something in that fuel?  Way to go.  Nice times  Cheesy

I read my own post and I meant I lifted the wheels over the starting photocell so I started the timing with the rear wheels.
I did the same thing on the last run that day. D@mn language barriers!

The 11.290 is a correct time however. Just pure pure E85 from the pump, no power adders.

Sorry for beeing so loud when I was warming up the engine, but the engine takes about 5 minutes on 2-2500 rpm to get warm enough to go to the line up.  Roll Eyes
