The other day we got in on one of those Track day events at Knutstorp Raceway in Sweden. This is a beautiful track with lots of curves and hills - to me this is one of the most fun tracks I´ve ever raced.

We were a bunch of guys from the Copenhagen region in both street cars as well as historic race cars. My friend Soren brought his perfect 66 Mini Cooper, my brother Martin his 08 supercharged Mustang GT/CS, and I brought my FGT and my 65 Mustang vintage racer.

As this was only practice and safety was essential, we did not go flat out, but we still had a lot of fun. As you can see my Mustang is sliding quite a bit, but that is due to the fact that we are using the old school Dunlop Racing tires im my class.

One of the videos is taken from Soren Mini Cooper (thats why Union Jack shows in the picture) and a small camera mounted on the side of the car, The video of me chasing the Porsched GT3 is taken by John with his handheld camera.

At the end of the first youtube link there´s a vidio of my first round in the FGT. We took it fairly slow as we wanted to warm up the car and the tires.
