Thank you for visiting my Personal Fundraising Page. Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to make a contribution to our fundraising efforts. After watching all the news from Haiti I felt it was time to do something about it. I have only heard great things about Doctors without Borders so I feel very confident that the funding will be used efficient. Doctors Without Borders is an international independent medical humanitarian organization delivering emergency aid to people affected by armed conflict, epidemics, natural and man-made disasters, and exclusion from health care in more than 60 countries. I invite you to visit their website http://doctorswithoutborders.org/index.cfm
Many thanks for your support– and don’t forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!

Drift for Haiti

I am back in California after two month’s traveling. I spent 6 weeks working in Spain on the movie Knight and Day. I had a great time over there. In the middle of it all I went down to Chile for a drift demo and had a great time. We had so much fun for three days doing some really cool formation stuff. We were six guys from the FD series that went down there. Super drift was the name of the show with RPM Motorsports putting it on. Well done guys.
Now my focus is on getting my program all going for 2010. I got some amazing stuff in the works but I can’t unveil it yet. I look forward to share my future plans as soon as I can.

After 6 weeks filming in Spain it feels great to be up in northern Sweden for a Christmas brake. I spent most of the time in Spain the last 6 weeks except one weekend when I went down to Chile for a drift demo. That was quite a trip for a few days but it all went awesome and the SuperDrift event was great.
After a few days in Stockholm I am now up in Umeå where both myself and Stina’s parents lives. Tomorrow we will travel further up north to spend Christmas at my brothers house. It has been dumping snow all over Sweden so it definitely looks like we all will get a white Christmas.
This is my favorite time of year when I can relax the most. We will do some skiing and ice skating and eat a lot of food. Sounds like a good balance to me.
A Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all of you. I’ll see you next Year with a lot of new exiting things going on.

It’s good! Samuel Hubinette’s ability to so deftly control a vehicle is one of the reasons he is a highly sought-after stunt-car driver and the current Formula DRIFT points leader (and two-time champion). Antics like the above point-after kick are also what have earned the Swedish-born Samuel Hubinette the nickname “The Crazy Swede”. Chances are, even if you’ve never seen him on the track, you’ve probably seen him through his work in numerous car commercials, as well as in movies such as The Fast and the Furious. With that, another MyRide With.

MyRide: Tell us about your first car and a favorite memory of it.

Samuel Hubinette: I bought a car with another friend of mine. We bought it for really cheap before I even had a driver’s license. We bought it basically to go out and trash it on some gravel roads. We got it for like $100, and it was some old FWD beater, I don’t know, maybe a Toyota or something. We’re like, “Oh, that’s a good deal” and some old person was selling it to us. We took it to a gravel road and just trashed it. After a while we ended up sliding into a ditch and smacking a big rock, and the whole rear-end came off. That was my first car.

After 5 weeks working on a movie in Spain I am now getting a brake for a few days to go down to Chile for a Drift demo. www.superdrift.cl
We are six drivers from the FD series that are going down.
I shipped (By air) my “BFGoodrich Royal Purple” Demo Viper down there a few weeks ago so it is ready to Rock.
We will be doing this on an airfield in central Santiago and they are expecting up 80.000 fans to come out.
I can’t wait to get down there and see the South America crowed.
After 3 days down there I will head back to Spain for another few weeks of movie work and then straight up to Sweden for Christmas.
That’s it for now.

I’ve been over here in Europe now for almost two week’s and it has been going great.
Due to the publication rules I can’t talk to much about the movie project.
The preparation is going great and I can just say that the movie will be a must see.
Right now I am on a two day brake and Stina came down for a week with two girl friends from Sweden so we will explore the city and maybe drive down to Cadiz tomorrow.
The Spanish people do not speak to much English so that can be a small problem when you are out for dinner. It has also been fun to see their culture with siesta in the afternoons. They close everything for 3 to 4 hour’s and then open it up around 7-8Pm. You see families with kids having dinner around 10-11pm. It seems like every night is a big celebration with streets and bars packed with folks.
