Our plan for 2010 is to try to run quicker and faster than anybody has done before in Europe. Our goal is to set new ET records both over the 1/8-mile as well as over the 1/4-mile. We can see a huge potential in the combination we´re running and are still working on the first 100 meters where we should be able to go about 0,1 seconds faster.
If you're gonna succeed with this ambition both the bike and the track needs to hold absolutely top standards. That means that we will concentrate on the best tracks and therefore this year we will not run in Hungary and Finland. We´re sorry for the fans especially in Hungary where we got so well treated last year for not showing up this season but if we succeed with our goals we may be back for another full Championship-tour next year.
The whole team feels that this is a new level of challenge and as always the ambition is very high. Hopefully this season will bring the answer on how fast the Beast really can go down the strip.
Tomorrow the racebus will head for Santa Pod and the Main Event, see you there folks!
We are the champions!

The Beast Team put a lot of effort and managed to do one of the biggest repair ever on the bike during a race.

Which resulted in a new event win!
The Beast team now advanced to position nr1 in the championship series but is only in the lead with a few points so the final race at Santa Pod will certainly be exciting.

Bahrain 2005-11-10 - 2005-11-11
After a two year time-out is ’The Beast’ once again hot news on the drag racing scene. The team has been invited to the exhibition race in Bahrain together with 12 other European teams, all to all 6 bike- and 7 car teams. The race is a Power Racing Promotion in association with BIC who wants to introduce top level drag racing in Bahrain. The track itself has potential of becoming one of the best tracks in the world and ‘The Beast’ team is looking forward to be one of the first drag bikes in the world to give it a try. After hours of planning and loading the bike with all accessories the time has finally on the road. -“I’m looking forward to meet this year’s European champion Ronny Aasen during such perfect conditions”, says Per.
‘The Beast’ team wishes everyone a nice finish of the race year in Bahrain!

2003
After a long and intense season with a lot of hard work the Beast-team is
extremely glad and proud to have become the European number one team and reclaim
the No 1 plate! The past season has been unusually even and tensed with many
‘ups and downs’.
Some of the runs we remember especially;
- Beating Ton Pels with 0.05 sec at Main Event’s first round.
- Loosing with 0.03 sec to Charley in the Finland’s first round.
- The expected win at Mantorp that ended in the first round’s burn out.
- The 6.57 sec race to Aasens 6.73 in Gardemoen’s first round.
- Hitting the concrete rail at Hockenheim in the final against Ton.
- Finally, the semi final against Willem Been where almost everything went wrong but ended up with a becoming European champ.
We would like to take the opportunity to thank our competitors for a great
season with extremely good results; Ton, Ronny, Stefan and Rob to mention
a few…
Moreover, special thanks to Lars Andersson and Peder Eneroth at SVEMO/UEM,
Stefan Bohman for all the great reporting and pictures, Jarmo for his help
with US parts, Juden and Lörs for the cool paintwork and finally all
great supporters all over the world!
