Hi everyone, on behalf of the SMA and Glenn Ocklund, it is a great honour to be on your Topic board. Please feel free to discuss anything about the Flying Kilometer on Ice with us. Everyone is getting excited here as the lakes start to freeze, and our second Flying K event in late March shall soon be opon us. Our track is 3 km long, the first Km to build up speed and the last one to brake.
The Speedweekend on Ice 2010 18-20 March regs have come out now, Check out
www.landracing.se ,see header Tävlingsinformation then Speedweekend on ice then inbjudan(invitation)/startlista(startlist). Anyone wanting to sign up can send their name, adress, vehicle etc to us. A limited amount of you LSR members without the possibility of bringing a vehicle, but wanting to come and try their luck can borrow my Kawasaki ZXR 750 `89. Its not so fast, but reliable, and last time on the ice managed 181 kmh ridden by Mad Micke Andersson with a front wheel puncture!
The long studded tyres can drop normal asphalt speeds by up to 20 %, so there is quite a bit of experimenting which studs give optimal results. There were even some cars and bikes last time which ran normal tyres !
Also a factor is the extreme cold - when we woke up there one morning it was -30 degrees C. Some cars were difficult to start, as their antifreeze/Glykol wasn`t adequate, the engine oil sticky, also a factor to drive around and warm up the engine, gearbox and diff oil before letting rip on the track. Even a thought about laptops - it was so cold my screen wouldnt show anything, so I was unable to reprogram the electronic choke curves. The coming event we hope to have a heated container to mechanic and warm up our bikes and quads in.
I`m sure a lot of our SMA
www.landracing.se guys and girls can tell you more exact figures than me, so fire away and ask
Here is an english translation of our coming event:- Seldom Seen Slim- let me know if this is too much info.
