    2013 has been a developing time over at Subaru, with the cars and with me as the driver. We’ve been getting a lot of things thrown at us on and off the track, so it’s been a time of change over there. We’ve just been working at it, chugging away. We made our first starts [...]

    It’s hard to say which of my first two GRC Lites races I was more comfortable at. I definitely felt like I got more acquainted with the car in Charlotte, just being on that dirt surface and doing so much quad riding. Knowing how things behave in dirt has definitely made me more comfortable in [...]

    I love and hate this part of the year—the end of the season is almost up and all kinds of rumors start forming. What will he drive next year, what car, what sponsors? Everyone wants to know, everyone is curious and us drivers want to get the best possible set-up for the up coming season. [...]

    Before racing in GRC Lites, I had a lot of experience racing speedboats and ATVs. There are definitely a lot of similarities and a lot of things that transfer over, like being comfortable with that line between being in control and out of control. You’re pushing it to the edge and getting comfortable with that, [...]

    Charlotte went well, because we didn’t get wrecked! With these things, you’ve not only got to be fast, but you also have to be a little bit lucky to make it through to the final without any incidents. It’s been hard to do, but it’s also what makes it so exciting. For us we were [...]

    As soon as I saw that the Charlotte race was on the schedule, and especially as soon as I heard that it was going to be held on The Dirt Track at Charlotte Motor Speedway, that was the one my radar locked onto for the year. That was going to be my Super Bowl for [...]

    I was fortunate to be offered to run the RMR Hyundai Veloster for the GRC Charlottte round with Rdio and Hyundai as sponsors. I was all excited to be back in that car. I had a good run with it last year but still had some unfinished business. Rhys told me, “You can run the [...]

    It’s been a while since I drove my Ford Fiesta SuperCar, but at this point of the season it won’t affect me much. I have been keeping myself busy training many hours on my TREK mountain bike, and also on the local go-cart track in my hometown Östersund. The speed and feeling driving my KZ2 [...]

    Looking back at this season, it’s been full of highs and lows for us. It’s definitely been a learning season—each and every time I’ve been on the race track, I’ve learned something new, which was essentially my goal for this season. This is an entirely new discipline of racing for me, with a new type [...]

    Last weekend, I rode CykelVasan! It is a 95km long montainbike race with a total of 16,000 participants! Over the past four years CykelVasan has been my fitness goal for the season, and I have done sooo many kilometers ahead of this race. I began in January with studded bicycle tires and did a lot [...]
