SSC Evening race #6 22:nd of March
13 driver on the grid sounded as a bad omen. Was it so?
Well, even before the race we had a fire. An electro static discharge from
a cleaning rag combined with petrol did it. No problem really.
Spraying the track with a mixture of glue and and a grease dissolve of some
kind (by mistake) instead of petrol (pure, chemical) was cool. The
cars was very easy to clean afterwards and the track was so shiny :-)
