The 1991 UIM F1 V6 2 liter series linup in Charlon, France. Yes I was there helping my brother Lennart with his #21 boat.
If I remember right there was seven Swedes in the series that year.
This was not FONDA.
Just saying.

Well..Jackie I have no interest argue with you about this but the fact is the UIM F1 World Series V6 2 liter race in Chalon, France 1991 was not a FONDA race.

Have a cold Stella instead..
