Welcome to the Saabs United Historic Rally Team home page!
We wish all SAAB fans and others interested in historic rallies and rally cars a warm welcome to this site, where our mission to build a replica Saab 99 Turbo rally car and compete in the 2010 Midnight Sun Rally will be featured as the project progresses!
We have just engaged the 1st of our 4 forward gears in the journey towards the 2010 Swedish Rally to the Midnightsun. The clock is ticking and we are approximately 11 months away from the starting flag.
The team:
Jörgen Trued (Driver)
- born in Trollhättan 1965 – has driven Midnattssolsrallyt three times.
Bo Janzon (Co-driver)
- born in Stockholm 1943, – has organized The Swedish Rally way back in time and has been Jörgen’s co-driver for three years.
