Hubinette gets Saab

Scott-Eklund Racing has done a deal to run California-based Swede Samuel Hubinette in its second Saab 93 in this weekend’s Global Rallycross Championship event at Charlotte.

“I’m very excited to be getting involved with the Scott-Eklund Racing team, introducing my partner ENEOS Motor Oil to the Global Rallycross Championship. This is without doubt a very interesting deal, coming together so late just one day before competition starts. It really is a privilege to be involved with the legend that is Per Eklund, also from Sweden, who I grew up watching in rally and rallycross when I was a child,” said Hubinette who will get his first run in the Saab during Friday practice for the event.
