BSR promotional video

Following is a promotional video for BSR.
I’m strongly considering one of their PPC units when it comes time to chip the Viggen, most likely next year. Richo’s just ordered one for his Viggen and one of the regulars at this site, Turbin, has applied some BSR juice to his SportCombi.

The guide looks at all vehicle classes from small through to exotics. There’s a couple of Saabs pictured in the guide, a 9-3 SportCombi and a Convertible, but Saab [...]
