I was on the other side of the car and helped out the crew! I joined the team last Wednesday when we had a track practice!
I thought it could be a good experience to help out the crew to see and understand how it’s on the other side of the car and transfer that so I can develop more as a driver!
For all the Pictures !
Driving on the race track & collect data!
A NASCAR Late Model joined us on the race track !

Is everything big in America !?
They say that everything is big in America. Now when I’ve been here for a while, I can absolutely agree to that !
But a couple of days ago I passed the smallest mountain chain in the world actually!
Take a look, that's all !
Motorsport is very big in America and especially NASCAR. All the people in America are very interest in the sport and very familiar with the drivers, the teams, all the latest news and so one. When people ask me about my background and I’m telling them I’m in a NASCAR Development Program. They all think it’s very cool and starts to ask questions, autographs etc. Last week when I opened up a new bank account I realized again that NASCAR is big. I could choose my own NASCAR VISA Card ! And of course I choose the driver who is NASCAR – Dale Earnhardt Sr. !
Take Care,
Marten

Swede in a NASCAR !
March 5th will be one of my best days ever. I had the opportunity to drive my NASCAR Modified for the first time ! We managed to do very good lap times and we learned more about the car!
I only say: NASCAR – V8 – 410” – 600+ hp – Great Team = The best day ever! The engine in this NASCAR is a really beast, so much horsepower and torque and you’re searching for traction all the time!
It was really fun to be on the track again and work with the team. I learned so much and got more experience and knowledge about the car, the team, the track, oval track racing etc. I’m really looking forward for this race season.

Cannot Wait !
The racing season is coming up and I and the whole team cannot wait to the premier race. I’ve learned so much from the classes and it will be fun and interesting to put all my new knowledge in to practice experience on the racetrack. March 5 will be a great day because then we’re supposed to do the first driving test ! I’ve looked at the weather channel every day now and unfortunately it supposed to rain and “only” be 59°F/ 15°C warm. I hope for the best!
I’ve started a web album there you can follow how my super mechanics are building up the NASCAR – car I’ll be racing this year. I’ll update the album several times per week so stay tune on! - Link
