[s-cars] Scammers...

[Mike P (530)]

I don't know Keith, Ortega Hanson has a certain charming ring to the name
:-)

Actually, I think its kind of refreshing to see this sort of entrepreneurial
spirit alive and well in something other than the usual Nigerian haunts.  

FWIW I hope to be in Sweden in March for some driving at Audi's winter
testing facilities in Arjelplorg (? spelling.)  I speak pretty good Spanish,
but my Swedish sucks.  Maybe I could try and run over him for you?  I think
they'll be letting us use spiked tires if that's of any interest.

Cheers
Mike Pederson
