Hope we can get some photos or video links from the races next month.  Be fast, and safe!
Seen it all, done it all, can't remember most of it.

Hi,  here`s a couple of photos of my new vehicle build for the coming race , its a toffee rocket , and is capable of very high speeds. Total cost of build 20 dollars ( for sugar, butter, and peanuts). The rocket is lined with toffee and peanuts, and i blast laughing gas down the inside, which gives a very powerful thrust. Ah well, the proof will be in the pudding (or in the toffee pot) at the race.





check this link to see how these rockets work and accelerate .

We all want to see the V1 make it up the track. Hopefully this will be a historic moment for the Svarthålet (Black hole)racing team

see their machine getting warmed up and oozing pure power here :-

Orsa Speedweekend 2012

2012

bike average speed 97.804 mph
bike exit speed 102.645 mph








rocket scruteered and started, but a nasty storm blew in and stopped the racing. Maybe for the best, this Toffee Rocket is phenomenal.

You sure this wasn't taken at the 2011 World Finals?

Toffee Rocket starting up at Orsa Speed 2012. in this video the NOS only has a 2 mm hole through the safety solenoid. Imagine the sound with no restriction.
