Good morning and welcome to day 4 of our coverage of the Summit Racing Equipment Internationals from Tierp Arena, today is another lovely day with clear skies and temperature of 20C rising to 30C with wind of a negligible 7mph from the south east. Density altitude is expected to be 1400 to 2000ft with 70 to 77 grains of water.

We are about to start round 1 of Pro Modified after FIA/FIM-E qualifying finished yesterday. We are sad to report that Top Methanol Funny Car racer Sandro Bellio won't be taking part as the problem he experienced at the top end was a fire from a hole in a cylinder head which torched the electronics, wiring and did a lot of damage to the body. The team reported they are out at least for the rest of the season. Also out due to engine damage is Top Fuel Bike racer Mikko Rajaniemi. We hope you guys get back on track soon.

Happy Birthday for today to Super Pro ET team member Tracy Doyle, Nostalgia Superstock racer Jim Chandler, Top Fuel racer Dennis Nilsson, VW Pro racer Jacob Bailey and 8.50 Bike racer Keith Wright, we hope you have a fantastic day. Also greetings to Eurodragsterholics who are following the action via our reports, and thanks to Robin Jackson, Benny Voss, and former Editor Tog for comments on our first race report from the current editorship.

Join us at around 09:30 CET for round 1 of Pro Modified.
