    Hi
    My name is Adam Flamholc, Im from Sweden (Europe). The last couple of years Ive been running Pro Stock in Europe, and at a few events in US(NHRA). Before this season I made the decision to switch class to Pro Modified. This year I ended up nmbr two in the Scandinavian Pro Mod/Top Doorslammer championship. Last week I bought Taylor Lastors Pro Mod Camaro turn key. Taylor told me he was signed up for the Indy event... Then everything happend very fast. I talked to NHRA about getting my license, Taylor talked to the Pro Mod organisation and now its decided, me and my Swedish team are going to one of the most legendary events in the world... The US-Nationals in Indianapolis.
    I want to thank Taylor Lastor at TRE, Amalie oil(my European main sponsor) without them this would not have been possible.
    We are a hard working team without the big money, and everybody in the team are doing this for the fun of it, Nobody is getting payed.
    We are really excited, and cant wait to get there.

    My team:

    Adam Flamholc(I have a machine shop)
    Fredrik Akesson(sheet metall worker)
    Patrick Grahn(plumber)
    Oscar Berseus(works in my shop)
    Johan Pripp(machine engineer)

    Best regards
    Adam Flamholc

    congrats

    way to go. you bought a great car. i've never seen a pro mod that goes as straight as Taylor's. it's very nice as well.

    be sure to stop by and say hi in Indy, or if I'm over on that side of the track, I'll stop by. you're going to be blown away how big the Indy race is. Pro Mod is completely on the other side of the track from the alcohol pits.

    Thanks for all the kind words!!!

    Well, heres a few answers on your questions:

    I dont really know Stephan Peterson, but we know of eachother.

    Ofcourse, all girls in Sweden are blonde and beautiful...:)

    When we were racing Pro Stock in US, we had a Brittish tv crew with us, that made the youtube vids. They will not go with us this time, but we will try to do something ourselves.

    I have a blog: flamholcdragracing.blogg.se Its in Swedish, but when we are in US I will try to uppdate it in english.

    Im really looking forward to se you all at the tracks!!!

    Thanks
    Adam Flamholc
