    Hey boys I just got off the phone with a good friend who I build his engine and flywheel and suspension for his nice rally 240 Volvo and I even (yikes!!!) co-drive with a couple of times...He called to say he's arranged a very last minute trip to Finland with his family and negotiate with his wife to get one day off , Saturday, to go watch WRC...
    Very last minute, brilliant planning, I know, but the poor boy doesn't have a clue what to do to see anything..

    His name is Albert Kun but we call him Alperti Kunkanen because every rally driver should have a Finnish alter-ego.
    He's a very nice guy, very good humor and generally fun to hang out with..

    Can some of you guys temporarily adopt Al and drag him along?

    Just Saturday......

    Pelle! You have room maybe? language should not be a problem, he can understand me so he can understand anything...I have even tried to teach him some Finnish swearing (well he did ask what I was saying on Stages about his driving...)

    if you can help and have some space please send me a note with your mobil phone number and maybe even say where you think would be smartest for him to be...

    Naturally he's flying in to Helsinki so he has to go up North somewhere...Train? Buss? Where?

    If you have any brilliant ideas please email me cause I don't know if PM works so well..My email is janvanvurpa "at" gmail 'dot' com

    Now since he's a Volvo 240 rally guy sure he wants to see the big heroes but I know he will be extra thrilled to see F-cup or vetomies too...I have been encouraging boys to get to Finland or Sweden and see what "normal" people drive like ---or "Abby Normal" people in typical club level cars..
    Please let me know....
