2008 season isn't complete as I stopped taking results around that time. Obviously I don't have any of his stuff in the '02 car. I know Andreas also did a couple of early rallies in a Group N Impreza. It should be possible to find the dates for the rallies to get them in order. Back in the day his website used to be great at pictures, results and updates. It's a shame there isn't an archive.

Andreas was co-driving his father Steinar in Rally Stavanger in april 2006 in their historic Porsche 911 RS. They ended 27th overall.

He drove his Subaru Impreza N11 (N4) in a rally in Wales 2006 (Old Ranges Rally). He ended second overall.

He has also been co-driving his physical trainer Roy Snellingen in som rallies in Norway in the beginning of his career. I dont remember when or in which events.

Did some research:
-Andreas was co-driving Roy Snellingen in Mountain Rally in january 2006. They drove a Mitsubishi Lancer Evo6. Retired on ss7 (8 stages totally in the event)

Andreas was also co-driver for Snellingen in Sigdalsrally 2006, I remember seeing a short inbord video from this somewhere where he was utter lost,
wery funny most good drivers are lousy co-drivers aren't they?

[Sulland]

And the story will continue in IRC for 2010, as written in the IRC section.

Will be very interessting to follow him there.
