Dream about Santa Claus and SSR is coming to town

We're approaching Christmas and we're just like everyone else busy in life with a lot on the plate. These are our prioritizes right now:

1. Preparing and getting everything in order for the SSR 2014 Christmas event 
To not confuse anyone the Workshop on the picture is not THE SSR workshop. The picture is stolen with pride. Those of you that want to visit the Workshop on the picture, take your car and drive to Tjolöholm.


2. Cooking our Voodoo style Pulled Pork for the SSR 2014 Christmas Event.

3. Working hard with the start up and launch of our web based Speed Shop. Building the web shop, adding the facts, the prices and setting up the payment system...


4. Build relationship with The Bank (Handelsbanken) We've presented ourselves and our solid business plan for The Bank. More about this in the future.


5. Build relationship with possible friends and contributors. Whenever we have the  opportunity to build friendship we do this, since we like to talk to people about our dream.  

6. Working on the cage, the fight goes on, more pipes and more details is being added to help us to go faster and still be safe... 

7. Starting to think and plan our Motivator The T6 engine!

8. Dream about Santa Claus and since we've all have eaten our porridge, been in time to work, and all in all have been rather nice guys we should have presents in pipeline from the big Santa Claus Workshop in OHIO, i.e. Summit Racing.

Cage not fight

  
We are doing good progress maybe not rocket speed progess, but still progress.

You should all know, that our daytime work is mail and Power Point's, and only when it gets really rough we start to use Excel and set up meetings. This means that we have to overcome our daytime handicap with pure magic and solid stubbornness. Based on this handicap we are doing huge progress.

 A new bending machine is being tested.

The Bend

Lars-Martin is working on the mock-up coil overs.

Small steps are better than no steps and we are for sure getting there and to be honest, Anders is doing something almost every evening. During the weekend the work is on, both Saturday and Sunday. It's for sure good to be more than one! This will enable us to have multiple work streams which will increase speed even more.

Our skills in notching and getting all bits and pieces together in the cage are improving fast.

The Sajo Milling Machine is the key to success !

Anders has become our guiding and leading star.
We have developed a very successful tactic. When we have an extremely tricky notch, then we tell Anders that: This is not possible! Not even you can do this one ! for sure ! and then he fix it flawless! voila! spot on! skitbra!





Håkan had a fight with his pipe, we in the team who try to work with some kind of elegance has started to suspect that Håkan got his machine and fabrication training in former East Germany as a traine in a Tractor plant. Of course during a period when people had names like Erich, Josef etc.


Håkan will later on explain where he learned how to fabricate and handle the most advanced machinery and state of the art theory.
Magnus is describing something rather big and he is for sure not in to fishing..

...after which he started to produce a new wastegate bracket. Concentration needed. Or else... Less fingers…..
Anders and I look upwards to see if reinforcement cross seems ok.

 
 Charging system layout is being discussed. Carina is impressed.
