That looks pretty interesting. Anyone know where this might be in English? Looks like a good read.

If you get the Google task bar it can automatically translate each page you visit to English. I use it all the time. It's machine language, so not perfect but you can read and understand most of it.

My google translator gets to about 1985 (coincidently right when the RC10 is listed) and quits. The 2nd half of the page is left untranslated. Anybody else have this issue?

Go to Youtube and catch some of that Flåklypa Grand Prix! I have a very vague memory of that. I think I'm going to get the remastered DVD that's out now. Because those old stop action films were originally shot on such high quality film, they look awesome converted to HD digital, like the Christmas collections that are on tv now.

I saw this site quite a while ago, I think it may have been up since 2007. Too bad Google translate only goes down a part ways.

I figured out that with my browser (firefox) set up, I can refresh the page a a few times and the translator makes it through. It appears the page load process get's timed out.

You can see it could use and update, per the re-release section...
It has been discussed a lot about the Rough Rider and Beetles coming, but most doubt it.
