  • GUEST POST // REMI MÕNGELIUS / DRIFTING VOLVOS ON LATVIAN ICE

    Guest post author: Remi Mõngelius // Facebook / Instagram Here’s a short story from early January of 2016. It’s 10 pm on a Saturday night when i get a phone call from Henri Puhmas: ”Yo, i’m taking the Volvo barge drifting in Latvia tomorrow, wanna tag along?” Promises of Volvos, drifting and a guarantee of smelling like Diesel and Oil by the end of the day..

Kokku oli väljas ca 70 autot, aastavahemikus 1960 kuni tänapäev. Piiranguid ei seadnud ka päritolumaad. Nii JDM, USA kui ka euromehed olid külg küliti ning tundusid omavahel läbi saavat.
