It was obvious that you would find Ida at the track as her father (Richard Zetterstr\u00f6m) used to race in the Pro stock class way before she was born. Her father has raced in several classes besides Pro stock and was always involved; building engines or helping teams out.<\/p>\n<p>As Ida was growing up she starting sharing the same passion for drag racing, after all it is a family sport! She started racing Junior dragster at the age of 8 and got her super comp license at the age of 16. After taking a couple of years from the \u2018Drag Racing World\u2019 to spend some time to herself and finish her education, she returned to the Drag Racing World in a surprising way.<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<p><figure id=\"attachment_40706\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-40706\" style=\"width: 275px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/tcobcur.com\/ver4\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/35433014_10156481939063953_6225409603534848000_n.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-40706\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/tcobcur.com\/ver4\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/35433014_10156481939063953_6225409603534848000_n-275x183.jpg?resize=275%2C183&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Ida\u2019s dad in Pro stock class\" width=\"275\" height=\"183\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-40706\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ida\u2019s dad in Pro stock class<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/td>\n<td>\n<p><figure id=\"attachment_40707\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-40707\" style=\"width: 183px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/tcobcur.com\/ver4\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/35328331_10156477704238953_8678378791942225920_n.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-40707\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/tcobcur.com\/ver4\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/35328331_10156477704238953_8678378791942225920_n-183x183.jpg?resize=183%2C183&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Ida driving Jr. Dragster\" width=\"183\" height=\"183\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-40707\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ida driving Jr. Dragster<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<p><figure id=\"attachment_40708\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-40708\" style=\"width: 275px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/tcobcur.com\/ver4\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/35544788_10156481941178953_157693718592225280_n.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-40708\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/tcobcur.com\/ver4\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/35544788_10156481941178953_157693718592225280_n-275x183.jpg?resize=275%2C183&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Ida and her dad\" width=\"275\" height=\"183\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-40708\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ida and her dad<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/td>\n<td>[gard]<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Growing up in a \u2018Car racing family\u2019 she never tough that she would be ever racing bikes. She can still hear her mother telling her; \u2018You can race anything you want, except funny cars or Bikes\u2019. But all racers has one thing in common; \u2018The need for speed \u2019. Ida\u2019s boyfriend\u00a0(Kim Hilander) who also shared the same passion for drag racing have started competing in Super Street Bikes class and Ida got introduced to the world of racing bikes.<\/p>\n<p>She decided to give it a try and it was a match right away. The only thing left for her to do is for her to get her license to ride a bike on public roads. But hey, who needs that on the track???<br \/>\nWhy Super street bike? Well hear her out! \u2018we can popped wheelies at 300 meters, doing 300+ km\/h\u2019. This class is special: these are stock appearing bikes with unlimited engine modifications, without wheelie bars and beside that their engines need to be capable of firing up with their original starter.<\/p>\n<p>When Ida decided to start racing bikes, she and her team bought a bike to compete in the super comp class. Unfortunately her super comp experience ended after a couple of tests as they resulted with a broken engine.<\/p>\n<p>They needed to build a new engine; this was the moment she decided to move to Super Street bike class. She debuted in the SSB class in June 2017 at Tierp Arena. With a lot of technical challenges last year, Ida and her team worked the whole winter and think they got the right combination for this season. So far her Personal best is a great 7.63 seconds at 310 km\/u.<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<p><figure id=\"attachment_40710\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-40710\" style=\"width: 275px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/tcobcur.com\/ver4\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/4Q6A2339.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-40710\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/tcobcur.com\/ver4\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/4Q6A2339-275x183.jpg?resize=275%2C183&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Event: Dico international 2017\" width=\"275\" height=\"183\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-40710\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Event: Dico international 2017<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/td>\n<td>\n<p><figure id=\"attachment_40711\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-40711\" style=\"width: 275px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/tcobcur.com\/ver4\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/M17A2494.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-40711\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/tcobcur.com\/ver4\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/M17A2494-275x183.jpg?resize=275%2C183&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Event: Dico international 2017\" width=\"275\" height=\"183\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-40711\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Event: Dico international 2017<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>So what does Drag means to Ida? \u2018I love everything about it!
