Chuck, the smoke at the runs (except the last one) comes from the turbo's seal between the body and the turbine chamber. That occurred a couple of races ago and I managed to stop that leak by turning and aligning the chamber again for the previous race at Motopark. There it didn't smoke but it started again. Now both turbos are sent to service and we'll find out was my quess right.

Absolutely beautiful! You are going to need a set of wheelie bars when you get to hard launchs. Saw that front end pick up. I'm always amazed at the number of great, and professional looking, cars you have over there. Have a great new years! Chuck

Finnish people are good in all sports where helmet is required . Drag Race, Rallying, Formula 1 and other racing series, Enduro and Ice Hockey. We used to be good at Ski Jumping too, but that seems to be history .

...American Football and Nascar records are just behind the corner. ...or not.



And heavy Y-Block wont need the wheelie bars yet. (I hope I'm wrong)

I'll let Ted chime in on that one. He has been using them for a while. If you really want to hammer it on launch I think you will need them. I'm sure by now your competition has taken notice of the little roadster that could. Chuck

60 feet was 1.228 in that record run and tires was just in the traction barrier. It's hard to get better. So launch was good, but more power and speed is needed to outside that 60', but who knows what that extra power brings with. Maybe those badass FED wheelies what we saw on pre-computer age, I hope.



That video is awesome.
