Today I am working on a Audi A5 car commercial in Down town LA. Pretty nice car but not for me. This is the new 4door version and it just came out.

The FormulaD event went just ok. But the great thing was that I advanced up to top 3 in the Championship battle.
Then on Sunday after the FD event we got out on the road corse and did a BFGoodrich KDW commercial.

I was pretty beat up from being in my racing suit for 3 days in a heat that is hard to explain.
But as soon as we got going with the driving I forgot about the heat. My job for this commercial was to scare the participants.
It is always fun to make people freak out when you are driving. We were doing this on the outside road course at the Las Vegas Motor-speedway. So the speed were pretty high up there and kicking in a 360 on one of the straightway definitely made them think twice about what they got themselves into.

I finally made it home after two weeks on the road.
Our first stop was Round three FormulaD in Jersey where we had a ok weekend. Made it to the great eight and staying on fourth place over all in the series.
Because we were already (almost) half way to Sweden we decided to head over there for a surprise trip. It turned out to be really fun to walk in to our parents houses and see their expressions.
After a few days up north of Sweden we went down to Stockholm for Stina’s brothers 40th birthday party. It was a great party with 90 people invited in a club in central Stockholm. The weather was terrible most of the time unfortunately. That’s the problem with the summer in Sweden. You never know what you will get. But when the sun is coming out everybody is doing the same.
After my week over in Sweden I went straight to a car commercial for BMW. We shot the 2010 Hydrogen X6 and 7 series. Great cars. The cool thing with their system is that when you accelerate full throttle it kicks in the electric engine too, so you get extra power.
We will be continuing shooting in downtown LA this weekend for the last part.

Me and Stina went to check out Ken Blocks preview of his new video “Gymkhana Two”. It came out great and I recommend to watch it when it comes out!

Me and Stina just got in to Florida for a few days with our friends David and Jody.
We had a few days with not to much going on so we decided to head over and get adapted to the east coast time before the event.
