... September 2011, Racing

Believe it or not. I became a little more alert after surgery two in Warsaw. So spirited that I dared to Finland with two good friends. We went to Hämeenlinna. When thinking about it, what the hell is there to do in Hämeenlinna.

Racing, Camaro Cup.
They have an old but beautiful race track there. Another friend was there with his team and drove the cup with your own car. For those not familiar, I can tell you that it's probably one of the most expensive hobbies. The money he put on his car, travel and the team could feed a small village. Something always goes down in the maximum trimmed cars. It is certainly easy to repair, but he must have with him almost two cars in spare parts. He need spare parts in lots. 

This race was no exception. The car went bad at high engine speeds. The team scratched their heads. I hung on my crutch and watched the spectacle. I have run the race and have both formula and racing license. I have also spent much time with a wrench in my hand. The team changed the spark plugs, alternator, belts, cables without finding fault. 

I asked to borrow a multimeter. I measured the voltage across the battery, and it was too low. The driver started the car and I measured again. It was better but still only 13 volts. If the spark at the spark plug should be good at high revs the voltage must be 14.8 volts. We changed the battery. The former had probably been damaged a bit in a crash. The car went like clockwork. It was probably a bit embarrassing when a cripple with a crutch solve the problem as the boys struggled with for several hours. 

We had the night ferry back to Sweden. All Russian truck drivers fighting for food on the ferry. After 45 minutes we sat alone in the dining room on a Saturday night. It was only just before 11pm and I was wondering where everyone had gone. 

Mystery of the missing drivers had explained a little later. I turn on the TV in the cab to watch on something when I am falling asleep. It did not make any difference what channel I chose, it was porn.

That day, I wanted racing - not porn.
To be continued...

Today 
It was a long day yesterday. We had a good hotel breakfast in the morning. The I drove my wife back home and my daughter to school. After that, straight to office. I had a long meeting with the company lawyer. We have a trial that will start on Thursday. Our cases have to be examined one last time before we end up in the courtroom. Although I was quite OK after yesterday's practice was todays sitting with lawyer annoying.

The day did not end there. It ended the evening with the Annual General Meeting of VISITA Stockholm, where I am board member. It was, about 50 members at the meeting. When the meeting was finished appellate I have been on stage four times. I had completed my term time in six years. I was properly thanked for it. Then it came up that I turned 50 years. So I was acclaimed for it also.

The day ended with the board dinner at a nice restaurant.

Can I sleep now?
