Everyone wants a picture of Roger Johansson's mean-looking Mustang.

Micke Kågered paced the Top Fuel field with the only Four of the event so far, a 4.944 in front of guests from sponsor System Edström.

Dan Larsen will be grateful not to have had a rear view mirror when Leif Andréasson crossed lanes right behind him in Top Methanol FC qualifying.

Jörgen Karlsson was a shock Pro Mod non-qualifier given how well team-mate Roger Johansson fared.

Paired burnouts are not the exclusive preserve of Pro Mod: these two Comp Eliminator racers can do it just as well.

Jonas Staflund's engine stopped suddenly during a burnout in yesterday's Top Methanol FC qualifying. This is the havoc wreaked by a snapped crank.

We should make it clear that The Bitch is the Super Comp altered, not driver Jenny Janse.

With no way of forcing air into the engine of the A-Fuel Dragster Krister Johansson seems to have suffered more than most with the hot weather here at Mantorp.

A 6.437 wasn't enough to get Jürgen Nagel into a very tight Top Methanol FC field.

Freddy Fagerström's Pro Mod appeared for the third qualifier with what looks like a chainsaw stuck on the front bumper!

Rasmus Möller doubtless views Junior Dragster as a dress rehearsal for Tommy's Top Fueller when they are both a little older.

Kalle Mannerkoski's Super Gas Plymouth Valiant is carrying the stickers of Jöran Persåker's Nasty Toys team.

Peter Ström's is one of four Fuel bikes in a 50/50 Fuel/Funny Bike split in Top Fuel Bike.

Per Bengtsson took the lead in Supertwin after a nightmare day yesterday.

Shaun Branch found some consistency today with a pair of 7.4s to finish up sixth in the Top Fuel Bike field.

Dan Larsen's Boxter Top Methanol FC is the fourth of seven in the Fives.

Jukka Johansson ended up fifth in Stock/Superstock but went out in round one of eliminations.

Micke Lindahl drove the Kendall Chevy into the 6.3s in Pro Mod qualifying and ended up in third spot.

Tami Brander didn't get to complete a pass in Pro Mod qualifying.

Nobert Kuno was a surprise DNQ in Pro Modified, not able to find his usual mid-six second form.
