Anyone here that has been with their Pantera at the green hell? Would be fun to see a few photos of it, hear what preparations that was done (and should have been done) and how fast did it go? Planning to go there when the winter says goodbye. Will try to get ready for that adventure during the dark months.

What's it like? The first time you can only tiptoe around the track... There are hundreds of curves, and a funky "carousel" which scares the hell out of you the first time you see it. What do you do? Dive down into the carousel or stay above it? Will you bottom out? The second time around I followed Ulf, who dove down into it so I knew my car would make it.

You obviously drive carefully knowing that you are 2000 km from home and if you damage the car it's a long way to walk. But you finish with an adreline pump that is impossible to describe.

I have wanted for years to go down there to try out "my own" car, and afterward put the sticker on the car to remind me of the day... Have a friend with a Mitsubishi Lancer EVO VI with over 400 awhp that I mentioned a trip for, and he is game!

The Swedes are planning an International meeting next year that includes a visit to the ´ring... Would be the perfect opportunity to "earn" the sticker!

You're only about a 90 minute drive or a short phone call from someone that will care for your Pantera like no other. Great pics.
