The FIA Main Event from 23rd – 26th May 2014 was a mixed weekend for most race teams including FireForce. Most of the weekend was a wash out and we only got a couple of runs on Sunday 25th May.
On the plus side, we unveiled the new St George and the Dragon themed paintwork on the new dragster, Number 5! For the first time, we increased the distance and managed to run a successful 1000ft in 6.94 seconds ay 191mph. There are still a few tweaks to be made and I will do some more testing over the new few months but this is a promising start so far.
The new dragster seems to be a hit with our fans and we have received lots of great feedback via our Facebook page and in person. Again I would like to thank Andy and Tom at Custom Painthouse for their hard work and skill on the panels.
Once some dates have been confirmed for Number 5, we will let you all know but for now, thanks to you all for your continued support.
