Ragtop your engine is looking realy good will be nice to see how much power it makes with the jpm cam funny it looks like its ground on a SC1 Scat cam blank!!, i will only use the SC1 blanks they are much better than the CWC brasilian blanks, much better material, are you using jpm springs? im going to buy his cam and springs to try myself, good luck with the tunning, just turn it up with plenty of fuel |

Well here is the new racebus! Complete with tent and everything. Need to put some other stickers on with Notchback Racing etc instead.  The old racebus in the background, anyone who needs one? Will be up for sale soon.  |

Went to the dyno today. After some struggles with the lamba and also the boostcontroll we managed to pull 540 rwhp at 2 bars with 572 newtons of torque then the clutch did not want to play anymore, so there is a lot more to come from the engine. We were still leaning it. So I guess I have to start working on another clutch setup yet again. |

During the dyno session I used a Stage 4 with black magic. It is time to setup the dual disc with clutch management.

well, we went to Mantorp this weekend for BugRun, lots of rain and not working timing meant that we could only get the 60 time and the end time, no speeds. Ended up with a new personal best of 9.72 tried the chute for the first times but then... EPIC FAIL a rod decided to find a new way through the case... will open the case or whats left of it to see how the crank and cam are doing. Now I need a new case again + more things. No fun. Well thats racing |

I feel sorry for you.
Hope the damage to the engine is limited, and that you are back on track again soon.
Nice to talk to you and have a near look at your fantastic car.
The 9,72 run looked realy straight and steady from the spectator view.
Hope to see you att Gardemoen.

Well it seems like the heads are alright... the rest is pretty much gone. I can probably save some bits and pieces here and there. I guess I will start to look for sponsors to get this sorted...

Well there is still hope for SCC . Just got word that my new case and crank is at Shawn Geers. Now I need to order some more stuff to complete the engine. It will have bigger stroke and longer rods with stronger bolts than before. So hopefully the reason that the engine broke will be eliminated. /Johan |

Well, it is almost August and I have not started with the new engine yet. I got word that the hardware will be sent today from California. Will continue with the work on getting my first engine running again, just to make sure that I will run at SCC. The best event of the year!

Friday was a good day when the package arrived. Started working yesterday. The race is on to get the engine running. Oh congratulations to Patte with the black fastback who ran a new PB of 9.39 and Rulle who ran a 9.60 but did not believe us at first |
