Welcome everybody!!
This website was born today(11.oct-06),
though the below information are somewhat... out of date (copied from my
prewious web), but soon to be updated with lots of exiting plans for
race-season 2007!!
WINTER ACTIVITIES -04/05
During this period there is
very little activities wich involves offroading and competitions. This
will most likely also be the situation until the season starts with the
Championship of Arendal Offroad Klubb 17.April. Until then there will be
organized training sessions once a month, and additionally we hope to find
oppertunities for som 'shake downs' and possably a demonstration for
sponsors.
Further to above, I am also
working to finalize the budget for this season. This prosess is quite time
consuming as it also includes sponsor deals to cover the existing budget,
but also extend it to be able to travel to more competions. The aim is to
represent Norway both in Nordic- and European Championship, to be arranged
in Sweden and Hungary this summer.

Overwiev from 2004
As in previous seasons we were
2 drivers in the team also in 2004, and the season gave us very various
results. In some competitions it went very well and we collected some
buckets, wich were very pleasant as the car was quite new to us after
several modifications. Other competitions can only count as mediocre
training sessions. But as things more often than earlier seasons broke
down on the car, we also achieved ouselfs very usefull experience with
repairing. Before 2004 we had actually never broke any axles, but managed
to do so 3 times this season. Additionally we can mention change of 2
springs, several repairs onthe exhaust, failue on stearing units and
finally replacing the clutch (wich includes taking out the engine). May I
also mention quite a few damages on the bodywork. Too ofthen we had
problems with airpressure in the weels, and our new 12-volt tools really
paid off. During a competition we actually managed to collect the tools
and change one weel within 3 minutes - without using a jack. Now we
plan to have beadlocks before the new season starts, and expect that we
have eliminated this problem.
SUMMARY
Last season I achieved a 4.place in the Scandinavian Open in Finland,
4.place in the Norwegian Cup, 3.place in the 'Southern' Cup, and a 5.placa
in the final 'race;' Gjerstad Sladden.
Magne Hagane finnished after 6
competitions with the following results: one bucket, 8.place in the
Norwegian Cup, 5.place in the 'Southern' Cup, and 7.place in Gjerstad Sladden.
We would also like to add that we
enjoyed very good cooperation with a company in Sandefjord during 2004.
They delivered exellent work with our logo and production of our teamwear.
We will in the future still use allot of the gear that they delivered to
us though they now have closed down their business. That is also the
reason why their logo/link is not to be found on our car and website. |

2005
Before the 2004 season our
racecar was vitally upgraded, with priceless help from Team 3D-racing. As
there is no important changes to the rules for the Standard-class, we are
not planning to make any serious modifications to the car before the 2005
season starts. It is hard to hide the fact that the car did take it's
share of rough treatment last year. During the winter we will give it the
needed services and try to shapen it up as best as possible so that it
looks nice and shiny before taking it to competitions again. On our 'most
wanted-list,' we can mention beadlocks, and a arb-locker for the rear axle,
but it very much depends on furhter sponsor deals.
We are also awaiting finalization of
some sponsor deals before we can announse our final race calendar. At the
right of this picture, you can find the list of the races that we
currently have covered in our budget. Further races may be added if more
sponsors join to support our team. |
