The Cal-look Lounge

I know I am....!
Are you?

I am. I leave lofoten tuseday 6, and go straight to BUG RUN.  ;D

We are... I guess I can speak for Rune as well.

Me, myself and Irene  ??? ???..

No no stop joking...

We are: Rune, Thomas and Gunnar(Ray Burns)
Some of us (read Rune an I) are more into Cal-Look than Thomas.
Anyway here u have a Picture of Thomas "mixed driver" It has the Stance at least:

We will bring some co-pilots: my girlfriend Therese, my brother Per, Thomas friend Jan.

Here's a picture of my '66 with "new rims"

Der Thundersodder Spezialer is going... together with the Blues Brothers from Hamar.

Yep....I am going.
The Bluesmobil and I am ready for the 2000km journey....Steinkjer-Hamar-Mantorp-Hamar-Steinkjer  ;D

As always, there's lots to do before leaving for Bug Run. I haven't started my engine yet, but if everything goes as planned, I will race Four Play for the first time on Mantorp. There's still a couple of parts for the engine in the mail from the US and Germany, but my hope is that they will arrive in a couple of days. Hopefully the engine will be started during the weekend. Bug Run here we come :-)

If everything goes as planned I am coming also. The engine is started and sonds awesome but it is leaking from the pulley. I have ordered a GB707 tool to put a sand seal on it. Then it is off to JPM:s dyno the day before BR so I have a 2000 km trip as well! Sundsvall-JPM-Mantorp-Sundsvall.

Hope you make it this year Roman, I don't, at least not in my VW. My backproblem is trying to kill me så I'am going in my Audi this year.

I'm still in debate (mostly with myself... how's that for schizofrenia!!) as to go or not...

Like Svwerker i'm not going "aircooled" as my bug is hibernating in "project-mode" sadly enough. :'(

Nice to hear Roman!!

Does anyone have any more "inside info" as to who's coming, who's not... It has been awfully quiet on various forums about BR.

Any guys / cars on the "Top Racers" list attending the show perhaps?

Thanks!

Håkan Lundgren is in the US and I don't think he will be back in time for BR and even if he was his car is in pieces for some seroius updates.

If everything goes my way I will be on the strip with my new "JPM superheads". My new car "Oboyburken" will sadly not be ready so the red ragtop will host the new engine. See ya!

Looks like I am running out of time this year also... I am going to Bug Run for sure, but most likely as a passenger in a squareback...
The oval is hung up at the dyno guy, I have no interior and some parts are still in the mail.... time is running out...

There´s 10 of us Finnish racers coming, but I think only 3 of us will race.
Jussi will debute his 51 ragtop-racer, Arto Vatja will try to break his record and Kotten Tallgren will debute his green 67.

See ya!

-tOmi-

It's going to be a Long Drive, but I'll be there! looking forward to it!

som of The MIB´s are going to BUG RUN

but no racer´s are coming ;(

It feels like the first day at work after a long holiday... Mantorp was as sunny as it used to be when the show and shine was on the grass ;-)
Had a fabulous time without any car this year too, maybe next year it is finished. Met all the usual dudes and a few new guys from Finland, very interesting stuff... fast AND cool guys!

Will post some pictures later...

Di'n i see that one "mixed driver" stranded somewhere longside the rocky road to Mantorp on friday? ;)

I did put out some pictures from Bug Run on http://www.heimberg.fi/

You're right Mango, the rear oil seal gave up in Charlottenberg.... So it had to spend the weekend there alone lol

Ok, i c.

Sorry we weren't there to help. We had both jackstands and the necessary parts to get ya'll back on track as you might already know. My gearbox started to whine ang klunck on the very same spot, so ve hed to turn around back home for swapping cars.

I took this picture when Beetlebugs girlfriend went for a cruise around the party camping with Jussi... in his  sunroof splitt with 274 hp... with carbs...
 

Yes the weather was very nice this year, my face is still red. And it was nice to see all you guys.

Hope to see you in Finland next summer?
