Her ya go T/A just for you enjoy, there are a couple of serious Volvos now in the States and I for one do miss the variety of new and exciting automobiles out now as here it's all just vanilla with rice burners and pickups especially in motorsports, reminds me of a road racing version of Japanese NASCAR...

Last years World Challenge GT Champion my buddy Randy Pobst driving a Volvo S60

Randy's not driving this one this his team car with another of my buds driving it from my neck of the woods..

Here's Randy..

Well done to your mate, nice looking motor.

When I showed a picture of my Mrs. little car on TV, Trans said it looked like a jelly mold.

You know what they say the difference between a volvo and a porcupine is?

The prick is on the outside of the porcupine !

Thanks Kwasaki I have to say that these new Volvos are impressive both in style and performance, but he's just lucky and good enough to be the driver , he doesn't build them, that's my forte to do both mostly out of need... He had a rich wife that launched his career or I'd be right there with him ... By the way he openly admits that on his website so I'm not taking a jab at him..

Too bad haven't seen T/A yet on a thread for his benefit, Oh well!!

Well that certainly applied back when when certain people may have been driving one but not with either of these drivers they're both top guys..

Randy has been a VW/Porsche/Audi, Honda, Mazda and now Volvo works driver and has now won Championships in all of them at top pro level. He was also the world Porsche Champion several years ago, he's the only guy who has ever co-driven in one of my cars in the past and though we had some problems at the start of the race with another driver and it caused damage to my right front hub we had to replace, he still managed to set a track record in my car, the next day I had to take that back though as I couldn't have him beating me in my own car ..

With a name like that a career as an American racing driver was a given.

I think his team mate Andy PILGRIM is even more apropos..
