We got here late last night and I was sick as hell and went straight to bed… Dad, Max and Patrik started to set our camp. Woke up today and still feeling really bad… Anyway our camp is now all done and we just got the car inspected and approved. We are soon about to warm up the car. First round is at 11:00 but I think we gonna pass on that one to do some small last stuff on the car and make sure everything is alright!

The time schedule for the rest of the day is 13.00, 15:00 and last one at 18:00.


Finally back at a race track! 🙂


Track looks good!


Got fuel?


My new tuning corner! 😀


Better late than never they say…. well the last week have been a big mess everywhere and also I got sick Tuesday…. I’m lucky to have Max and Dad that put together the last stuff on the motor and loaded the trailer with a lot of stuff so I could take an evening totally off from everything and go home and spend 14 hours in my bed, and that’s really not how I usually am… don’t know what shit that got me, might be too much work maybe!? 😉 I’m still pretty sick but at least I can handle the situation again so I have of course spent the last 24 hours at the shop to get everything ready and about one hour ago me and Max left the shop in the rig and Dad and Patrik the Mas in my Volvo! Just about 8 hours left and I can hopefully sleep away the last of my sickness and get up early tomorrow morning so we can unload, build our pit and I can do the last tuning stuff that is necessary for our first test hit, this first race in our series is just a test weekend for us due to we did miss our only test session chance two weeks ago because we were missing parts to the car…. I do not have any big expectations about this coming weekend more that start to figure out all the new stuff on the car, don’t wanna blow up the motor in the first pass like last year so it will be baby steps! 🙂


Finally, its NINE Months since we went to the track the last time!


Loading and cleaning, and what a mess it is before we will get it organized…. Thanks to my siss Sara for helping me out! 🙂


Decided to do a quick cam swap before loading the car! 😀


It’s 2:00 in the morning the day before it’s time to go to the track! Race car is all done! 


Finally loaded in the trailer again! 🙂


Looking pretty good on the bottom floor, still looooong hours before we are all done here!


And we are on the roll!!!


We should have been in Malmö testing last weekend but due to missing parts to the car we never even left the shop… 

But we are a team that want to move forward so instead we took the opportunity and spent it together the best way possible working on the trailer to get more stuff ready on the bottom floor, and what a good weekend it turned out to be!! Four days, three people, about 16 hours per day around 180 man hours and I’m / we are really satisfied with how the trailer starts to look on the bottom floor now! Me, Max and Patrik have made a crazy good job getting the new cabins from our partner Treston mounted, a lot of fabricated parts from our partner Bengtssons Smide have made the trailer a lot heavier! The benches are in place, the kitchens are pretty much all done, it’s sealed up really good around all doors on the outside and we got some insulation in them! We have cleaned out and I’m pretty much ready to start load it up with tools and parts and getting everything organized! This is pretty much too good to be true! Some small stuff still left to do on it before I’m gonna put it to the side for a while and only spend time at work instead, I mean it’s more than good to use for us like it is right now! 😀


Looking good!! The cabinets from Treston looks just awesome after we got them in place together with a wooden bench plate on top of it! 🙂

About 26 meters (92 feet) of rubber stripe around the rear lift gate! 😉

The doors are boxed with a stainless steel frame on the inside to keep the wrong people out from the trailer….

The Swedish license plate is finally mounted in the correct place. 🙂


All the doors that are able to open up from the outside are made stronger with some extra stuff in them, the last stuff is finish welded, we got some insulation in them and they are closed with an inner aluminum plate, so they are pretty much all finished now… finally! 🙂

What a beautiful mess! 😉

Max did shorten down our two kitchens to make them fit in the trailer like we want them to, he also put in a oven and some extra drawers.

Always need to watch people so they do it right!

Max the man!

No words needed… #norrlänning 🙂

Cabins mounted in place.

We are doing something here!

Wooden bench plate, looks awesome good!!!!

Patrik started to close op this front part with a wall so we can hide more stuff behind it 😉

Its just great!!

Part of a pretty strong work bench! Thanks once again to Erik at Bengtssons Smide for helping out!

Korv is the Swedish word for sausage just so you guys know 🙂

Hooked up for the first time’

Time to leave the trailer shop.

Finally empty!! 🙂

Back home at the ABM shop.

Doing some air line maintenance…. Just for fun… 🙂
