Just read that Slim Borgudd has dies on Thursday this week at the age of 76.
That's another driver of the eighties gone.
RIP Slim!

Besides he was a music man too... An ABBA song for his memory and this little effort...

Perhaps it is time for me to build the ATS that is collecting dust in the stash.

If you have, or find a copy of Memories of Ronnie, there’s a nice photo of Slim with Barbro Peterson at the 1981 British GP.

Yeah, Slim scored points with Tyrrell and paid direct from his revenues with ABBA. He was a decent driver.

Actually he scored his only point with ATS at the British GP in 1981. The 1982 season with Tyrrell unfortunately ended after only three races because of sponsorship problems.
