245+ mph fast super car

My secound day in Sweden started by a crazy jetlag and then heading down to my dad's shop there he works on his Jaguar 420 G ! I've spend many hours there by fixing and preparing our race cars, and it paid off in the end :)








After a great Swedish lunch we went to meet up with a company in Stockholm who has this 245+ mhp / 390+ km/h fast Swedish Super Car called Koenigsegg !!

Arrived in Sweden !

My flight to Sweden went very well and it's nice to see my family when they picked me up at the airport ! The first night I woke up 5am with tons of energy, but maybe it's a good thing !! It feels weird in one way to be back in Sweden and I notice very quickly that everything is so much smaller here compare to America; like the stairs, the drinking glasses, the road etc !

























































Here are some pictures from the NASCAR race at Sonoma !

Great Ending !

I'm flying to Sweden this afternoon for the summer ! The main reason is for planing my next year in the US and of course see my family and friends. I only spend 3 1/2 weeks total in Sweden last year so it will be nice in one way to be back ! Plus I've some really cool meetings there as well !


We spend some extra time in San Francisco today before my flight and its so nice there ! I'll miss California and all my friends here a lot !

Vintage Time !

I went to Infineon Raceway yesterday and to my big surprise it was a very cool event called Sonoma Historic Motorsports Festival going on. This is the American version of the Goodwood festival in England. There were race cars from 1930 to cool Trans-Am, Can-Am cars and all of them were in excellent conditions, super cool !


























Here is some pictures from the day !

Me VS Coconut !

Today when I went to do the grocery store I passed by where all the coconuts are and whips I put one in the shopping cart.













But my impulsive acting backfired when it was time to open it up !













It started by using a small knife to cut off the first layer which turn out the small knife got replaced pretty fast to a much bigger one !


























But Hey, a lot of sweat, tons of tools and being stubborn...I did it, I opened it up !!
and please don't ask if it was worth it... :)
