Dragster, RED

1994 I used Volvo buss as it was when I bought it from Jakobstad 9/1993.  They were done "nice" doors there and paint it using mat machinepaint.  Dragster damaged in accident 1993 and I change steeltube frame and aluminum covers.  I want more 90s outlook and get it.  Racing were gone better. More starts, reactiontimes were while better but not all the time.  More throphys.  If I remember right, we race 5competition in Finland, 2 in Sweden.  Two times I got trophy.

 

1995 I changed Buss rear, fixed some damages, paint it and made some SS parts.  Matti Moliis, Pinstriper - airbrushpainter, made some logos both side of buss.  Dragster got new Alum. rods, new titanium valves (ex pro stock valves, I lathe to right lenght and made it smaller for SB chevy).  Antti Tanhuala, clocksmith and my mechanic, made me some extra boxes used with 7AL-2 MSD.  

3 times throphy, reaction times better, but more or less drag racing was hobby because I was working in Russia, Finland, Sweden... and try to pay out all big number of money what i losed in Devalvation/Own companies.  Young and stupid costs me hundreds of thousands Finnish marks.  1996 I was paid all off and can start normal life after that "hell".  I was work 4-5years 6-7days week, as much as they give me posibilities in steelfactories, mining companies, sawmill companies....

When 1995 season was "ready", I sold buss to Oulu , North-Finland. Got good money and bought middle of 80s B-58 (middle engine) 9,6litre Volvo buss which was very good to use.  Airsprings, fast, quiet.....   You can see pics later in other presentation.
