Racing

Season is on, first race was 1/8 at the supertrack , Veidec Malmoe,
Lot´s of rain and only two qualification runs, and I decided to shelf the Ethanol for a while.
Insufficient fuel pressure and starving is not winning any races.
Back to the old Gasoline setup but too late and no qualification with a 6.74 run.
Next was Sundsvall and full lenght 1/4 mile, and again lots of rain and only 2 qualification runs, managed to enter 7th position (8 ladder) with a 10.605 and in the Quarter final I faced one of the quick
Yamaha Warriors and my 10,391/207 km/h aginst his 9,514/221
is not in the same legue, but fun it is.
I notice continued fuel starvation so fuel pump, regulator and suitable
needle valves are now on hand.
I may drop out of the points race due lack of time, as the next two races are just to far away and one weekend after another.
I´m looking at running some match racing possibly at the "Back to basic" days which is opening for the European Championship races at Mantorp Park (Veidec) last week of July.
Some previosly retired Nitro ironheads from Norway may be there and
the track would be top class. 
Bike and Engine/gearbox is working fine apart from the fuel issue,
I need more runs to get warmed up.
