Vintage Saab Two Stroke Race Car with Crazy Swede Driving.

[@henrys.6864]

Just the sound of that 2 stroke engine makes you want to go fast!

[@heybusdrivah]

Engine runs strong! Man I love 2 strokes

[@shitboxsGarage]

Amen!

[@ronaldodomacena9347]

the sound alone makes you want to redline in every gear

[@deanmeyer1815]

When I was living in Colorado in the mid 1980s, a friend had a Sonnet. I believe it was v-4 2 stroke. Handled like a go cart. But it was under powered, even when it ran good, which wasn’t very often.😆

[@satanihelvetet]

The early Sonetts had two strokes, but it's a 3 cyl inline. The V4 is a four stroke.

[@patrickcannell2258]

I don't think you altitude helped either.

[@randybauer2998]

V-4 was a 4 stroke engine

[@stephenburnage7687]

I haven't driven in Sweden in many years but I remember very low speed limits and some uncompromising traffic cops. Got ticketed there more often than almost anywhere other country.

[@EpicWinDugII]

Woah! Engine started backwards?? That's crazy :D Nevermind the wet xD

[@Saarisjantteri]

my old ktm sometimes starts backwards

[@mbo191]

It can happen. A friend of mine changed the wires from the distributor to the spark plugs, he didn't mark up the old wires but just took them off and banged in the new ones. Motor coughed a bit when he cranked it but it started up, and he had 3 gears backwards and 1 forward. He said it had a "wet" sound in the exhaust note due to the late ignition point.

[@MrGarfield4]

A 2 stroke engine often doesn’t matter or care which way it runs.

[@paulboylan5998]

My first car, did exactly the same to me, l was an apprentice in a garage and put the plug leads on the wrong way round, another mechanic sorted it for me.

[@timcolledge3732]

Superb! Love the sound of that engine!!

[@tomahawk1556]

We missed Made in Sweden SAAB very much! 🌷🌿🕯

[@BurninSven1]

Man måste kunna köra också. Fan det är halt snurrar i rondellen sen upp i 140 på en riktigt våt motorväg. Jo tjena Karlsson på taket hade skrattat i brallan

[@melvinharvey8279]

High school girlfriend had one. So much fun on the back roads.

[@malcolmwhite6588]

What the car ? Or her?😂😮

[@lawrencelewis8105]

Fun indeed! Cripes that thing sounds awesome!

[@sharkamov]

_Nothing_ sounds like the Saab 96 3-cyl twostroke goin' like the petrol was stolen! . . . . . 💘 _Yeeeha!!!_ 😉 👍

[@Designer_TopG]

Hes crazy ! Its raining. And , other car was near

[@BIGTAZ351]

My friend stalled/reverse started a Detroit once...but that is a worse situation.

[@McGyver0479]

Fantastic sound

[@PreciousAlpschindler]

That‘s some interesting shifter placement!

[@nulle.k]

Pretty common in Old european compacts of that era

[@mottee]

@@nulle.k The column shifter is a convenient arrangement if the linkage has not too much play. A front wheel driven car needs some kind of linkage from the shifter to the 'box anyhow, so an on-the-floor stick would not provide any initial advantage. A column shifter leaves more leg room, as does also the "umbrella handle" in the dashboard which was common in small French cars.

[@jimpascale6487]

Ha, I agree Tom, a “crazy” Swede! 😀

[@laszloferencz1838]

Maybe the exhaust Sound is like the Barkas B1000

[@tobiasdierks]

Both are 3 cylinder two strokes so they sound very similar

[@blueabattoir]

I have never heard of that van. I think I need one. I had a Thames Freighter and still have a Corvair cargo van. Glorious

[@Jonjs99]

This could ended badly. Im not concerned about idiots inside, im concerned about that poor saab

[@donneysaab]

Haha. Indeed!! The idiots are replaceable!

[@emorider6804]

What RON petrol you use and oil ?

[@donquixote1502]

Wow, it gives me an Eargasm!

[@Mackan134]

Haha!! Störtsköna snubbar :)

[@charliewestlund9688]

How many horsepower?

[@Wingnut353]

In the ballpark of 50hp.

[@Putinhuylo3]

At least 80 hp.

[@9736grunn]

you got a roll cage no problem !

[@andersolsson2523]

And the "H" sticker on the dashbord!

[@markveits6300]

NDE? Where? I thought this was normal for having a bit of fun!

[@donneysaab]

Mark Veits haha. Play on words. It was a blast.

[@leewalker8805]

Looks like he hit 50 mph and thought he was doing 150 mph lol

[@herrbonk3635]

1:41 He was doing 140 km/h. (No idea what that is in miles though.)

[@donneysaab]

Yep. Two strokes can run backwards just as good as forward.

[@DCASE45]

@@donneysaab Had it with my 93 when my foot slipped from the clutch pedal , took me some time to understand what happened.

[@DOCTRJ]
