PWR Racing Team was founded in 2012 by Peter Wallenberg and racing driver Daniel Haglof. The team has since grown from a small 2 car team to one of the greatest forces in Swedish motorsport, with a team in everything from single seater racing to the top GT and touring car series. With strong values and unconventional ideas, the team is a catalyst in Swedish motorsport.

In 2014 the team brought the first woman, Emma Kimlainen, into Swedish motorsport in over 15 years. In the last 3 seasons of the STCC she has already gained 3 podium finishes, the first of which was in her fifth race. PWR Racing is also the youngest team to ever take an STCC victory as well as the only STCC team to have their own youth squad.

The team ran TTA spec Saab 9-3's for their first 3 years in the STCC but for 2016 they have partnered with Seat Sport to run the only Seat Leon in the series. Both Daniel Haglof and Emma Kimlainen will run similar liveries to 2015 while Johan Kristofferson joins the team in a white Bauhaus sponsored car.

While Emma featured an excellent season in 2015, finishing 9th in the drivers standings and bringing PWR Racing up to 2nd in the teams, her first season in the new Seat did not go so well.

A crash during the first round meant she was unable to enter Race 2 and she also missed out on the 2 races at Mantorp. She returned for the round at Anderstorp but was unable to place in the top 5 in any of her races and currently sits at 11th in the standings with 31 points, while her teammates sit in 3rd and 4th.

Specifications:
Body: Silhouette Touring Car
Engine: 3.5 V6
Gearbox: 6 Speed Manual Sequential
Power: 420 BHP
Aspiration: Naturally Aspirated
Weight: 1150 KG

...Oh, it's the pink race car driven by that hot girl. Voted, again.



By the way, from the back doesn't this car resemble a Kia Cerato coupe? It kinda does to me.

I just don't see why the woman had to get the pink one. Also, didn't know Sweden had a touring car series. Also, it does kind of look like a Kia Forte coupe (Which is what it's called where I live) from the back.

They've had one for years, although it's underwent some changes in the last few years. There was the Swedish Touring Car Championship, which started in 1996 and ended in 2010, but the teams from the STCC made a new series called the TTA - Elite Racing Series in 2011. They used silhouette touring cars and went on for a few years under the TTA name before the series was renamed to the Scandanavian Touring Car Championship in 2014.
 
Some onboard sound:
 
As all the STCC cars have a common Solution F TC12 base with a bodywork for each brand, all bodywork getting à balance of performances, it coule be easy to add one car with one physic but multiple skins and geometry
