Hi,all

We prepared for the third startup, we had gotten some tips and have read some about methanol fuelsystems, so now we were ready to start up. We manged to run about 4 min before we ran out of fuel. That was great

We have unforseen technical challenges, so we are not able to attend the first race at Gardermoen next weekend. The problem is that the car is to low in the front so there is a possibility that the guard/stage light's will lit up to soon. We have to order new springs.
Fired up the car for the second time. Now the fueltank mounted, but still the engine consume more methanol than we expected. We used about 40 liters when the engine was idle running. So we had to look into that also. But we manged to test the transmisson, and that ran as expected.
