Once upon a time, closer to determining the winter of 1995-96, we built XL bubble, it is more or less the same body today. We who built the XL was Mattias Nilsson, Paul Scherman (formerly Sjöholm) and Magnus Gröndahl. With Pink Power's old frame, rear axle and a VW Beetle body that Magnus has standing so it became a XL. The extension is an extra pair of doors that were built together with the other body. The engine at that time was a Ford 460 with dual methanol carburetor, so we have been friends of the environment all the time!
After a long long winter 1996, it was XL, the first Two Wheel Drive "pull" in Sweden.
Our first contest "show" was held in Anderstorp or Anderstorp Raceway Stadium as motor units. We were off on a number of fairs and exhibitions, the first few years and we were obviously appreciated that, because we still go on several of these exhibitions or fairs still.
The first engine was a real beauty, and at that time a monster.
We had about 700 hp and at the time it was really good.
