Default Last run of the year

Even though the winter is knocking on the door I took the last chance to drive my Camaro yesterday and today. I had the wrong setting on my camera yesterday so I did another run today. Cold weather, clear sky and some frost on the ground. We are expecting 6-8 inches of snow tomorrow night.

When I came out on the main road I hit the throttle and spun my tires on 1-3 gear, then I saw the cops coming in the opposite lane, crusied by them in 75 mph on a 45 mph road (oops) but I got lucky, they didn't turn around.

Now it has to rest in my garage for the winter, some minor maintenance work this year.

He loved his time there, learned alot and, oh yeah, he confirmed that Swedish women on average are stunningly beautiful!! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/drool.gif[/img]

Nice video Janne ! We can all watch this again later when there is snow outside. They talked about maybe 4 inches tomorrow down here. We´ll see.

Great job
Anders

PS. I have some more pics from Anderstorp Raceway in the late sixties that we need to scan. I´ll call you about it. DS.
