    STCC - Gothenburg City Race

    This weekend it's time for the first city race in Sweden. With the introduction of Ethanol in both the STCC and all the support classes the politicans couldn't pull out the old pollution card like in the good old days so we now have a city race!

    The track is looking pretty exciting with a couple of fast corners that will probably see a car or two getting rid of their rear view mirrors.

    Here's an onboard video:

    The BMW team Flash Engineering has according to their webpage stocked up on rear view mirrors for the upcoming street race. They are coming to this weekend with 24 spare mirrors.

    "We are expecting to lose two rear view mirrors each time we go out on track, everything below that has to be considered a bonus."




    On a different note, Robert Dahlgren crashed out in the practice session yesterday and was sent to the hospital because of back pains. He said he'd be allright and that he's ready to race. Looking at the picture attached his car looks pretty beat up, I don't know if they have a spare car available. Prior to his crash he was the quickest guy out there.

    The STCC race was really a cracker with extremly close racing and plenty of passing eventhough it was a tight track. Thed Bj?rk won in the Honda closely followed by Norwegian Tomas Schie in the Chevrolet Lacetti and championship leader Fredrik Ekblom in the BMW 320si in third. Volvo's Robert Dahlgren had pole and led until the pitstop but had then problems keeping up the pace (most probably because he was in a lot of pain from his practice accident) and ended his race by getting a Honda in his side door.

    The support series were exciting as well with grids of 30 in both Porsche Carrera Cup and the Camaro Cup. In the later series Duncan Huisman was a guest driver and won both races (although driving a bit on the defensive side having to weave and block a bit too much to keep second placed Krokstr?m behind him in race 2). But it was great to watch Duncan more or less all the time going sideways between the barriers. Great entertainment.

    I know no one cares but here's a pretty sweet onboard clip from G?ransson's race.

    Thumbs down a job

    I went to a job market on Dec’20th and delivered several resumes to some companies. wow power leveling I never imagined that I received a call for an interview on the next morning. Surprising! This call came from Mindray Company, which is a little famous company about medical devices in Shenzhen. wow power leveling It is said that the pressures in this company are tremendously high and employees have few weekends in the whole year though the salaries maybe better than others. The reason that I delivered my resume to this company is that employees may practice in many aspects and they can challenge themselves constantly. I think it is really necessary for young people to practice in some high pressures companies, though cheap archlord gold it may be busier and tired for their daily jobs. I applied for a position called “international product specialist” in Mindray. You know, I had little time to prepare this interview and I only asked a senior brother who has been accepted by this company about some successful experience. Besides, I asked a friend to check out my English introduction. I also read the introduction and products of Mindray till midnight on the net. This is the first interview in my life, therefore I tried my best archlord online gold to prepare it well and I was indeed extremely excited for this interview.On the next day morning, there are seven candidates attended this interview, including five handsome boys and two pretty girls. The leaders archlord power leveling asked us to answer some questions at the same time, and there are three items for us to answer. Firstly, we had to introduce ourselves in English. Secondly, we should express our opinions about which was more important when a new product entered into international market, price or brand? Thirdly, we should debate our opinions of last item and elect someone to conclude it finally.I think I developed all my abilities on this interview, and I promised that the English introduction made me stand out at the beginning. However, I don’t think I answered right and appropriately in the following tests, because I have no experiences before. Moreover, it is a considerably formal interview and the majority of us wore formal suits. I felt pressures when I first saw these candidates because I only wore white shirt, jean and gym shoes. Yeah, I am too childish to wear the clothes which symbolize the students in the campus compare to them who wore formal business suits. It is reported that students may not be accepted until they took part in at least three interviews. One boy of us successfully entered into the next turn, and I failed in my first interview in my whole life.I still felt regretted that I couldn’t be one member of Mindray though it may be normal for a student who failed in her first interview in her life. However, this kind of experience brought a lot of thoughts for me and made me awaken that I was only a student who had few abilities and no working experiences. I should accurately treat my situation and shouldn’t overrate myself. In the past, I regarded me as an excellent girl because I accomplished my master degree in an influencing university. What a false opinion it is! Diplomas, in fact, only prove that you have studied something, but it never mean that you have already transferred them into your abilities. In modern society, abilities or competences are indubitably more important than diplomas. I shouldn’t look down upon myself because I know that I have great potentials to do some significant jobs. However, I also should realize that there is still a long way for me to go if I am eager to be a special person in this world.
