Here is a short story about MRM-Racing for you who do not know me and the story.
First I must thank all of you helping this forum to what it is, not much spam and overall friendly posts.
When former distributor just shut down the old forum and a lot of knowledge disappeared I decided to open up a new, with little higher “roof” to be able to talk about other brands as long as it has to do with Autronic system.
Autronic is a very special system, we do not have fancy manuals, support lines in other countries and more. But we do have one of the best systems with a great community to help each other.
In early 80th my big brother Mika started with dragracing VW after many years off-roading. We all had almost monster Jeeps with V8, big wheels and sand buggies with VW parts.
So we printed MRM-Racing on the car, my brother Mika, me (Robert) and our engineering friend Micke. So I was the ignition/fuel guy. Starting with Kügelfisher fuel pumps and a lot of work to grind or weld on the 3D “plumb” inside the pump to change the fuel. Later on it was Haltech and Electromotive wich made it a lot easier to adjust fuel & ignition. In middle 80th I got my own VW with stock floorpan and most stock suspension. Used a Porsche 930 gearbox to the VW block and Porsche owerhead cams & heads. The mechanical fuelpump was heard to adjust, but still managed 9.62 on ¼ mile and long wheelies.
Later we concentrated on one car with Autronic system, 4-link, tube frame and more. Tested two Autorotor Swedish superchargers and run 9.17 on ¼ .
This has always been a “second” job since it is hard to live on it with this small marked in Sweden.
So engines has always been a big part of my life, and when my wife passed away in cancer 2008 only 38 years old leaving me with 3 children (and youngest only 3 years old). I was planning to stop working with MRM-Racing.
When you have downsides in your life you learn what you really like to do. I have three very different things, love cars & engines, love to cook and love music.
This is what a man need, car, food and music ☺
I realized that I would never stop working with cars, right know restoring a 1964.5 Mustang convertible in my garage. And my two sons of course has Autronic systems to be tuned…..
Early 2013 I meet a girl when I was educating me to LifeCoach that had passion for music. She has been working all her life with music mostly as background singer for very big Swedish bands. She is a Rock singer or Melodical Rock and that is my type of music!!
So after a while I decided to publish her first solo album with all songs (except one) written by her self.
So the circle ended, cars, food & music ☺
I opened MRM Production record company, this is going to be a big part of my life along working with Autronic.
So I cannot stop making some advertise here ☺ and hopefully come to Australia and other places with her performing on stage and maybe a chance to meet some of you!!
I have made her homepage www.martinaedoff.com and we has FB site www.facebook.com/martinaedoffmusic
Please visit and like if you want ☺ The album is released 28th August and can be previewed at Amazin music, link on FB and homepage. Also a new Video (with a Viper!!) is coming and available on Itunes, Spotify and more after the release.
Hopefully many others like her music and buy, this will help me to plan for a new album, tours and never, never, never stop working with cars & Autronic ☺
For me engines can be music, and music is an engine while building them...
