We’re happy to tell you that Saab’s badge is set to shine in the daylight once again despite the fact that the company has gone bankrupt. To be more specific, a total of four all-new 9-3 sedan race cars will be used in the 2012 Swedish TTA Racing Elite League.
The vehicles will be run by Flash Engineering and Team Tido, which will be supported by the Saan Dealer Organization, as well as by various divisions of the company that have been kept alive, such as Saab Parts. Behind the wheel, we’ll get Jan "Flash" Nilsson, Mattias Andersson, Linus Ohlsson. as well as a third driver, which hasn’t been announced yet.

"I have longed for 40 years to see the fight between Saab and Volvo on the race tracks. It becomes reality this summer and my biggest dream is to get all Saab fans to the TTA races to cheer us on,” said Jan 'Flash' Nilsson, driver and Managing Director of Flash Engineering.
