Ah, welcomed message box :-) I guess that I didn't really need Outlook appointment reminders this time..


The classic trip startup photo from Viking Line terminal in Stockholm Harbour. This time our group consisted of Sebastian and Jaska the Mad Scientist in rat Split, Kai with his Barndoor, Pahis with his 356B, Juse and Heeba in '68 Looker, J&J Racing Team with their '65 Beetle and Dynamic Luftsick duo in my '60 Cabrio.

The stint from Stockholm to Mantorp was bit boring without major surprises or breakdowns, I had some cooling "problems" (GB dipstick started to flash the pressure light) since I tried to maintain 130+ average speed with top down for the first 100 kms.


Per-Inge Mattson has now fitted his genuine BRMs to Judson Supercharged Oval.


WCA campsite..


Close-up photo of Sebastian Vuorisalo's Split. Even though it looks a rat, it has never been welded and neither does it need any welding. Kai is adjusting the valves in Barndoor.


Three cars from Kupla Kopla's garage; J&J Racing Team's '65, Pauli's '65 Type II Panelvan and my '60 Cabrio.



The wheels in Juse's Looker are from Saab in case someone is wondering.. Swedish BRMs :-)


Looks like Sebastian's Split has an Oval cousin in Norway or something.
