At the Motorclub in Spydeberg

I am back were it all started – at the Motorclub in Spydeberg. Henning and myself have been competing with radiocontrolled cars for a couple of days. This is great fun, and it is awesome to see how real it is – compared to my “big” rallycar. We had to work on differentials and bumpers and the car’s setup, with the exact same result as we get on my actual rallycar. So – even here we are depending on good mechanics!

We have had some very nice days here in Spydeberg with my family and friends, and I think we have all recharged our batteries now.

Happy holidays!

SubaruVillage – Rally Norway

A lot of good food, Christmas gifts and plenty om time with my family. So far, christmas has been perfect. But, in between all the christmas-fun, I am busy planning activities during Rally Norway. Subaru Norway and PSSC are building a complete SubaruVillage outside Vikingskipet at Hamar. Inside you can follow the rally live, check out my old rally-cars, let the children enjoy the kidscorner, or just getting something to eat or drink.

But the most exciting part is the Gamezone, and it will be the best ever! You will have the chance to test the worlds best carsimulator and the latest edition of Playseat Evolution Solberg Edition. Or you could test the new Playstation 3 with Motorstorm. Even though the releasedate in Europe is not until March, Playstation 3 will be in our SubaruVillage during Rally Norway. Isn’t that something!?

Dinner is waiting for me now – but I hope to see every one of you during Rally Norway!

Yesterday FIA published the official list of entrants for 2007. Petter will start with no 7 on his car, and is very happy about that. “I won the championship with the same number on my car, 7 must be my lucky number!” said a optimistic Petter on the phone this morning.

The 2007 sesason starts with Rallye Monte Carlo, 19. – 21. January 2007.

New tyres

For two days now I have tested my Subaru with BF Goodrich tyres in the French Alps, and I am very pleased. The tyres are feeling good, also the cooperation with the Goodrich-team seems to be working well. But it is a lot for me to learn. Goodrich has many different tyres, and even after two days of intense testing, there is still much work left. And of course, I had to work with adjustments on my car as well. It is quite a big task to get to know these new tyres as well as I knew Pirelli’s, but I have a good feeling! Chris will continue testing for two more days, and he has a long list of things that need to be checked.

Petter is testing

Sweden test 2006

Petter is currently testing in the French Alpes, in the area near Lyon. This is the first real test on the new BF Goodrich Tyres, and it takes place on roads that reflects the conditions Petter and Phil will be driving on during Rally Monte Carlo. During the test days, the team will come up with the best set up for the car for Rally Monte Carlo. In January a similar test will be done in Norway, to get the correct set up for Rally Sweden and Rally Norway.

Rally Monte Carlo kicks off the 2007 season, 18. – 21. January 2007. The rally is returning to Ardeche and the Vercors Mountains, with the servicepark in the city of Valence, a 350km car-ride from Monte Carlo. The rally will be back on ancient ground, but for todays drivers, all the roads are new.
