Koffel's Place Links

Hi Guys!
Just back from a 3 day 3-B1 car test & tune session with our team.

We had FANTASTIC weather…. And we were on a German track where there was a special BMW car
show. We were the only race team there (special invitation) and had the whole track to ourselves!!
For us, this was a dream weekend. All cars turned out tip-top, except for some vibration issues
on my RR at above 200kmh. The track was not prepped but we still had
grip enough to test the cars engines and set ups etc. All in all a GREAT weekend!
I made a special B1 pic for you guys (team frame)
We also upgraded the website drag pages.

This coming weekend (although the weather forecast is bad…) we have our first official
race… I will report about the RR afterwards. But so far so good & the engine run’s
like clockwork. Seeing I couldn’t run it under real full power all the way yet, I will
be back with news on that later.
1 thing that was very surprising that after 6 or 7 runs we lashed the valves / engine hot…
Not 1 rocker was off in any way!!! Great engine!!

Hay guys, here are some B1-runner photo’s made on the presentation day last Wednesday (more than 250 visitors!) It was a great success. We had all the team and sub-team cars here together (6 race cars & all B1’s)
