Sonny Bryant Knife Edged 4.750” crank badly mistreated by rotating metal junk in form of a couple of broken push-rods and some exploded clevite bearings, our good friends at Värmdö Motorteknik will make this baby come to life again really soon.

Metal Mania, the remaining pushrod next to the shattered one.

Engine out of the car to get some TLC from our good sponsor DTE Racing, Staffan Nilsson invites the procedure with a smile.

Before the engine was shot we rambled with this broken litte baby, in the process we changed gears from 4.56 to 4.29 which was too high. Should have gone with 4.10 or 3.90, we’re calculating whicj is the one as we speak.

We’re putting together our -65 Mustang Fastback for the grand opening of Kjula Dragway’s test n tune event this weekend, work is in progress and we’re aiming to start up Åskan as soon as possible.

Saturday on the 7:th of May 2011 was the sneak preview and opening day of the grandiose Tierp Arena just north of Stockholm, Sweden.

With this gigantic US-inspired arena, Sweden will be the leading dragracing country in all of Europe after Mantorp Park’s sad decay and foreclosure as a dragracingtrack. It’s actually upsetting to hear the statement from the board of trustees at Mantorp Park that they will not go further with the dragracingevents in the future.

On that note, we want to welcome Tierp Arena as the new shining hope for European dragracing!

Our Crewchief Jocke just bought a -74 Pontiac Firebird for his girl Anna who’s gonna race with the team flags season 2011. Welcome to the team!

The car has a 350 Cui smallblock V8 with a lightweight turbo and a rebuilt front, should be able to get +500 horsepower with some smaller engine rebuilds.

Due to a poor job on the piston skirt coating last year we decided to sandblast away the remaining bits and pieces of what was left, turned out great!
