"North of 49" at Speed Week 2002

small logo

Tuesday, 13 August

Tuesday Morning, bright and early at the fuel truck. We must have been more alert that day, because we clued in and ditched the blanket we'd been using to keep the salt out of the intake, in favour of one of our old T shirts.

Ted tops up the tank on "North of 49". Today's first run will be to collect a B license for Ted.

Roomy? An approximation of what the driver sees in the car, the camera is too far forward to provide a real view, but it's close.

Almost at the line. Staging wasn't near as long on Tuesday.

The best "Car & Driver" picture we got, Ted after his B license run.

It's windier today, but you can hear Ted going through the traps and shutting down 

The roadster is collecting a lot of salt, most of it off of the tires of the tow car. Back in the pit, we've found a hinge and will be installing the driver side cowling.

The chute is hung to dry, while the cowling is installed and the car gets a once over before returning to the track.
