Do you have any fond memories, personal experiences, or book-worthy photos of Volvos in motorsports? Well, now might be your chance to get those memories into print. Through one of our contacts at Volvo USA, a writer has come to us looking for your input on his new book. The writer, Peter Haventon (he's that guy pictured above,) has written three previous books about Volvo, along with a Volkswagen book and others on general interest subjects. Here's what he's looking for in his own words:

"Since writing about rally and racing gives us much more freedom than our dead-serious book on safety last year, we feel that we can include practically anything to do with fast Volvos. Anything you come to think of--most anything is welcome. I would like to show not only successes but also the joy of the sport."

So there you go. If just reading that request brings back some great moments, e-mail your tales to Peter. Dan Johnson at Volvo USA public relations would like you to CC him on your submissions if you'd like your information filed away in Volvo's own archives.
