The Gatebil On Ice was this weekend in Sigdal- Norway. Kenneth prepped his new vinyl wrapped car for testing on the Ice and drove to Sigdal to participate. One the way one of trailer wheels exploded, after a quick fix he was back on the road again.

Half an hour before the Gatebil competion «Breisladden» started he tested the car, and competed right after, and won 1. place. The car was functioning and is ready for new projects this Winter.

I drove this course last year also, and I new this track well. I qualified as nr 7th. I drove against Tony B top 32, knocked him out. Ready for top 16, when my clutch locked up. I could not shift gear before the race. So I smashed the car in 3rd gear and started the car up. I held the E-brake hard, clutched out on 7000 rpm, it loosened a bit, and I bearly got it in gear. The car did not run good, in the first turn I could hear and feel the clutch slip, and my 350z straightened up, the rare end came out and I hit the wall. Matt Powers made it through to the next round, and I was out.

I drove this course last year, and i felt that I did it well. Therefore I was looking forward to driving it this year also. When it came down to driving this year, Formula D had turned the horseshoe around, a faster input but a slower exit. The practice was ok. We qualified as nr.5th. Because there was something wrong with the speed measuring, they made adjustments and suddenly all of the drivers got speed points and I got a new qual number- 12th. Top 32, I drove against Walker Wilkerson, it was close and we had to go «One More Time». We were ready at Start, and I felt that something was wrong, In the horseshoe the arm broke, and knocked the drive shaft out. My Team Lutz Performance tried to fix it, but 5 min was not enough time to sort that out. So Walker Wilkerson passed on to the next run, and I was out.

The Formula D season has begun. Kenneth with his new team Lutz Performance, finished 10th at the season’s first run in Long Beach California.

In the last even in 2011 at Irwindale Raceway Kenneth crashed the Nissan 350z he uses to compete in Formula Drift. To prepare for the FD 2012 season, the car was shipped to Lutz Performance in Tampa to assess the damage and repair the car to be ready to compete in round 1 April 6th 2012.

Kenneth was excited to test the car’s new setup in Long Beach! Lutz Performance had received new sponsors, and with many new added parts, such as a new triple plate carbonetic carbon clutch now installed in the 350z, it enabled him to drive more aggressive and push his driving skills and the 350z to a whole new level. Also now installed are brand new coilovers from Stance that gives the twin turbo 350z much more traction! Lutz Performance installed new front hubs and arms provided by Powered By Max that allowed Kenneth to have more angle and much more aggressive steering. SPL Pro suspension provided Kenneth will all new suspension components for his 350z. Konig Wheels provided Kenneth with Ultra light weight wheels for his 2012 Formula Drift campaign. All in all the Nissan 350z has been completely re-constructed and re-designed by Lutz Performance to ensure a smooth season for Kenneth Moen in 2012!!!

After qualifying in the top 32 for round 1 Long Beach, Kenneth’s first run was against Darren McNamara (Falken Tire’s Saturn Sky) who unfortunately crashed on his first run and knocking himself out of the event. He then took on Conrad Grunewald (Hankook Camaro) and defeated him as well and advanced to the top 8. Up next we had to beat Matt Powers (Need 4 Speed 240sx) to make it into the top 4, after a very close battle between Kenneth and Matt, Matt Powers advanced to the top 4 and round 1 long beach was in the books.

Kenneth is looking forward to a great season with his new team Lutz Performance in 2012!

I år var det ny layout på banen og det viste seg og fungere veldig bra.

Vi gleder oss til og se han kjøre mere i 2012! Takk for i år!

Kenneth var igjen klar for å kjøre Samuel Hubinette sin brutale Dogde Challenger. Kenneth testet noen runder mandagen før løpet. Bilen funket helt værst! 8000rpm på 4 gir rundt hele banken. Kenneth gledet seg til løpet! En super rask bane. Når torsdagen kom og treningen til selve løpet startet var det noe rart, bilen gikk ikke som den skulle. etter noen runder med trening blei det fastslått at motoren var syk. Minst et stempel var brent og Kenneth måtte bryte før kvall. Dette var siste løpet i Sams bil og kenneth skal kjøre siste løpet på Irwindale i sin egen Nissan 350z.
