SWEDISH TOURING CAR CHAMPIONSHIP
●Swedish Touring Car Championship Series
Sweden, the Nordic country that produced Volvo and Saab, is known for its strength in rallying, but circuit racing is also surprisingly popular. In the 2000 Swedish Touring Car Championship, which was contested by super touring cars, Tommy Rustad, driving a Primera, won the championship after a close battle with the Audi A4 Quattro and Volvo S40. Rustad is a Norwegian who also competed in the BTCC in 1998. This is Nissan's second consecutive victory in the Manufacturer's Championship.

as difficult as it is for everyone, it's nice seeing your stuff run out! that means your blaze posts are most likely working! but also hopefully your moving stuff will stop being a problem for you soon
yes!! blaze posts have treated me SO well, and my email list had been growing quite a bit before I started blazin' too. defintely a perfect storm of factors that I'm super grateful for
and thank you! we're on the hunt again/still, incredibly battle-hardened now. i'm unrelentingly being the most obnoxious house tourer ever.. looking into every little corner & asking all kinds of questions. unfortunately i've walked in & straight back out of places that had seemed nice online twice now- once because mouse droppings & a dead roach in the shower, another time because the place had a very smokey smell. ain't messing around with any of that anymore. at this point we may end up back in an apartment because i'm starting to think houses just aren't for me..... but one way or another, this will be over by the end of the month!

King Of The Comebacks: Hail The New KTM 890 SMT
Sharper, sleeker, sportier. Take a touch of touring, a pinch of unbeatable tarmac performance and spice with a large portion of Supermoto legacy and serve with speed: KTM is delighted to reintroduce the KTM SMT back into the fold. No compromises and no catches. This regeneration of a KTM icon will sweep all highway traffic aside.
Imagine the ultimate Supermoto ‘play weapon’, combined with a bike that boasts a number of technical features, necessary for extended touring capabilities: you can attack the apex while knowing full well that the bike will take you much further.
Essential information:
- KTM 890 SMT back in the spotlight with re-tuned KTM 890 LC8c platform, developed to hit marks at the top of the Supermoto touring segment for power/torque-to-weight ratio.
- A street focused chassis, adjustable suspension, and premium tyres and brakes elevate this purposeful model between KTM ADVENTURE and KTM STREET product ranges. The perfect foil for both hill passes and the roads that lie thereafter, in equal measure.
- The 2023 KTM 890 SMT is relaunched with fanfare and a pulsating ‘hill climb’ concept in the hands of former AMA Superbike and Supermoto racer Chris Fillmore.
The only way is up. The racing skills of former AMA Superbike and Supermoto ace Chris Fillmore were an apt conduit to display the potential of the reimagined KTM 890 SMT. The American, and Pikes Peak winner, throttled the Supermoto-tourer along a Sardinian mountain climb to show petrol heads and the motorcycle industry what they had been missing – and what they had been waiting for.
Fillmore gassed the super-torquey 889cc LC8c parallel twin and counted on 105 hp at 8,000 rpm. The engine is the same platform behind the enviable stats and output of the KTM 890 ADVENTURE model and its variations: with a 20% increase in rotating mass over the KTM 790 platform, providing stability and reassurance through corners, the knock control and 46 mm dual Dell’Orto throttle bodies guaranteeing optimum momentum, while the fuel consumption from the 15.8 litre tank is fantastically low at 4.6 litres/100 km. The KTM 890 SMT is just as happy pushed through low revs as it is pinned in higher gears - in fact Fillmore used the full range of the KTM 790 DUKE’s motor to ace his second Pikes Peak hill climb record in Colorado back in 2018.
The tank itself plays a forceful role in the ergonomics and has been slimmed and designed specifically for the KTM 890 SMT. The form of the tank slides the rider even further ‘into’ the bike with a wide and comfy contact patch, but is still compact enough for free and flowing movement (aided by the single piece Supermoto shaped seat at 860 mm height). The aero-optimised, smoked windshield is placed just above the double fender concept, with a low splash guard on the fork legs. Cruise or attack? You decide.
Chassis-wise the KTM 890 SMT has a CroMo steel frame with a tighter geometry that apes the KTM ADVENTURE's stats. The structure is typically light and superbly agile on the move but also ensures fierce stability the faster a rider pushes. The shock absorber is angled further to reduce the seat height and accommodate the longer swingarm, contributing to both a forwardly inclined rider position as well as straight line stability.
Feeling the KTM 890 SMT on the go is an excellent experience: agile and responsive. The WP APEX suspension (43 mm open cartridge upside-down forks with 180 mm of travel, the same as the rear shock) is fully adjustable and complements the 17” wheels. The Michelin PowerGP tyres supply more than enough stick for the slickest tarmac and have been especially selected for their specs and appropriateness for the KTM 890 SMT’s demands. The state of the art 5” TFT dashboard is made from optically bonded mineral glass and is scratch and glare resistant, and fully customisable while divulging the easy-to-use infographic menu system for setup preferences.
The bike can be moulded even further. The three standard ride modes (RAIN, STREET, SPORT) can be expanded with an optional TRACK setting, permitting the rider to toggle between different amounts of throttle response and traction control through 10 levels. Cornering Motorcycle Traction Control (MTC) is an important safety feature, sensitive to the bike's pitch and behavior at lean. Try six different handlebar positions with a 30 mm range. The show can slide and be rapidly wrenched to a halt with its potent brakes, consisting of four piston calipers, putting pressure on a 320 mm disc up front, while double piston calipers grip the 260 mm rear. Putting this stopping power into action employs Cornering ABS and Supermoto ABS - placing both technically advanced provisions into the mix for an excellent safety profile.
More add-ons available include heated grips and the chance to add Motor Slip Regulation (MSR), ideal for better control in low grip situations and for fast downshifts, to the software package. QUICKSHIFTER+ and Cruise Control are optional and ready to go with a simple activation process at Authorised KTM Dealers. Connectivity with the bike means full access to navigation possibilities and the advantages of the KTMconnect App, including roadside assistance, owner manuals and a digital service booklet for service and maintenance.
It would be very modest of us not to mention the looks. The KTM 890 SMT says a lot with its Supermoto-tourer style, from the 17" wheels to its sporty graphics. The SMT cuts a sharp profile and will be impossible to miss, and even harder to outgun, on the road. As ever, don’t forget the encompassing collection of KTM PowerParts (to include accessories, TRACK and TECH Packs) and KTM PowerWear to look the part whether you're on the hill, the highway or any other route to KTM 890 SMT happiness.
2023 KTM 890 SMT Highlights
// KTM 890 LC8c reworked for special sport touring emphasis and the next generation of the KTM 890 SMT thanks to 100 Nm of Torque and 105 hp with unbeatable power delivery

// Frame, engine, wheels, WP APEX suspension all tweaked for lithe performance

Cat Lovers
Tokyo is a big place. There's a lot to do there and each agent wanted to do something different. From riding a bullet train to participating in Fashion Week.
Fade already knew what she wanted to do since they said they were going to spend a weekend in Japan. But she didn’t expect that her path would cross with a certain agent with a blue fringe.
Words: +2200
Available on Wattpad in Portuguese
Available on Ao3
- NOWHERE TO...
- Oh, save it.
That's what Fade said before shooting that clone in the head.
Fade became suspicious of the placement of the last attacker alive as she entered the spike's point. No one was so stupid to leave the super weapon unprotected to be easily disarmed. The Turkish agent sacrificed the glory of disarming the spike to hunt down the hunter. And it was a far more pleasurable sensation than it should be killing him mid-sentence.
She twirled the gun on her finger, returning to the point. Yoru disarmed the spike, while Sage resurrected Raze, with Astra next to her.
- Ah…- Raze sighed, stretching. - What’d I miss? - She gave a charming smile, looking at the other two.
- Everything, practically. - Astra shrugged.
- So, it's over? Raze turned to Sage, eyes gleaming.
Sage sighed, as if she was relieved. She smiled, nodding.
- It’s over.
- AEEEEEEEEE! VACATIONS!!! - Raze jumped on Sage and Astra, swinging them.
- We're only taking two days off. - Yoru grumbled, finishing to disarm the spike.
- It's more than nothing! - She smiled, pulling them both with her. - Let's go to karaoke! On Tokyo Tourer! Toer! Tower! Ouh ouh ouh I want some pokemon plushies! YORU! - The Japanese trembled when he heard his name, picking up the spike from the ground. - TAKE ME TO A SUSHI BAR!
- You wish. - He grumbled, walking towards their base, right past by the girls. - Tourists. - He said in a bad mood.
Sage rolled her eyes with a smile, letting Raze take her.
- Just use your phone Raze...
- Oh yeah! Oooh Astra, didn't you mention a club?
- Yessss! - Astra gave an excited smile. - Ah chale, now you're speaking my language.
- FADE! - Raze yelled out of nowhere, turning to Fade, pulling Astra and Sage with her. - You're going with us, right? It's going to be sooooooo fun!
Fade gave Raze a smile, infected by her excitement.
- I have plans for the afternoon. - She shrugged, putting her hands in her jacket pockets.
- Nooooo! - Raze whimpered and held Astra's face, pinching her cheeks. - It'll make Astra cry!
Astra pouted, eyeing Fade. The Turkish agent rolled her eyes, giving a slight smile.
- But I accept the club later.
- EEEEEE! - Raze jumped up and turned around again, pulling Sage and Astra with her. - YORU!
- Holy shit... - Yoru threw his head back, already tired.
- You'll kill me. - Sage grumbled, trying to free herself from Raze.
- No worries. - She hugged Sage tighter. - COME WITH US IN THE CLUB! LET'S GO!
- No. - He kept walking, not even looking back.
- Oxi omi. - Raze grimaced and dropped the two, running to Yoru. Sage let out the air, taking a deep breath. - What do you have to do that 's better than being with us? - She started walking backwards, in front of him.
- It doesn't matter. - He spoke through gritted teeth, trying to dodge Raze.
- Aaah c’mon! - The Brazilian whimpered. - Everyone goes! Please! It will be so much fun!
- I already told you I don't want to! - He snorted, passing by Raze at once.
Raze whimpered more, making mention to go after Yoru, but Sage grabbed her shoulder, giving her a slight smile.
- Let him go.
Raze looked at Sage and then looked at Yoru, sniffling.
- I wanted everyone together… - She shook her head.
- I know. - Sage nodded.
- Let's go chale! - Astra hugged Raze, excitedly. - Party on!
The three walked away, laughing and talking about what they were going to do.
Fade, with her characteristic cat eyes, watched everything in silence, following her own way.
...
Tokyo is a big place. There's a lot to do there and each agent wanted to do something different. From riding a bullet train to participating in Fashion Week.
Fade already knew what she wanted to do since they said they were going to spend a weekend in Japan. She carefully researched the place and followed the route traced by the navigation app until she reached her destination. It had an understated facade and looked bigger on the inside. Fade had a burst of joy as she entered the small building.
A Neko Cafe, with decor and everything.
The walls were painted in pastel colors, divided between the cat and food areas. Fade did research that would make the FBI jealous about the entire history of the place and CIA agents should learn from her interrogation with the Cafe receptionist about how they treated felines. When she was satisfied, she allowed herself a look at the cats' menu.
And that was enough for her to melt all of her bounty hunter facets.
Fade ordered a coffee before entering the cat area, studying the kittens as if she were planning to kidnap each one for herself. She watched the cats from where she was. An elegant Maine Coon strutted around one of the cat toys, enjoying the attention it received from a few fascinated children. A British Shorthair was lying on a bed, allowing a woman to stroke its soft fur. A small Munchkin was struggling to follow a man who was going to drink his coffee with its short legs. Many other stray kittens were at the Cafe.
Yep. Fade was going to kidnap one of them.
She watched a cat with eyes as blue as the sky and fur as black as the night moving. He walked slowly, a little tired. Fade guessed he was at least 20 years old. She wanted to take care of that old cat.
But he walked over to a man sitting in the lotus position against a wall, snuggling into his lap. The man, wearing a hooded Jojo sweatshirt, began to caress the cat with the back of his hand, using circular moves. It was a peculiar movement, as if it were an old habit between them. Fade guessed that those two had known each other for a long time and she thought that was adorable. She kept trying to see the man's face, half hidden by the hood. His thin lips moved as if he were talking to the cat and his down hair had a blue fringe…
Fade frowned. It wasn't possible...
The man let out a sigh and leaned his head against the wall, eyes closed. Fade's jaw dropped.
- Yoru? - She whispered.
...
Sora was a great listener. Ryo could always tell him everything, really blurt out. And that was the closest therapy he would ever get.
- Don't get me wrong… - Ryo could feel the blue eyes on him, staring at him without judgment. - I like the… idea of what we do there… But… Ugh I just wanted answers… - He swallowed, lowering his gaze. Sora's head was resting on Ryo's thigh, with his feline face turned towards him. - And I only got more questions… This is getting more and more difficult.
Sora stretched out on Ryo's lap, letting out a tired meow.
- I know. It's too tiring... - He shook his head, going back to stroking Sora's back the way he liked. - But I have to do this...
- I agree.
Ryo froze, immediately recognizing the voice coming from above him. It populated the nightmares he had when he was awake and was the newest reason for his insomnia.
- It's not easy to deal with what we must deal with. - She continued and Ryo felt her footsteps around him, soft and silent, stopping in front of him. - But places like this help a lot. It seems to take that weight off our shoulders. - He saw her sneakers first, right before she sat on the floor, hugging her knees.
The Japanese man swallowed, looking up at Fade. She looked around curiously, as if she felt comfortable there and wanted to find out more about the place.
- It's nice to see the sunlight. And the energy here is much lighter than the energy at the base. Fear infests that place. - The Turkish agent turned to the other, swaying a little. - Here and now, I only feel fear coming from you. - She tilted her head theatrically, blinking as if confused. - Why are you afraid, Ryo?
Ryo moistened his lips, not taking his eyes off her. He moved his hands carefully, as if fearing her next actions, clenching his fists on his knees. Sora sat between his legs, facing Fade as well. He knew well when there was an intruder in his territory.
- What do you want? - He asked low, defensively.
- Me? - She made an innocent face, blinking. - I just came to appreciate kittens. Just like you. - She smiled sweetly, looking down at Sora. Ryo gritted his teeth and Sora meowed. - They have a file for each of them, with lots of useful information. I found it extremely helpful. I should adopt a similar method. - Fade smiled and extended her hand towards Sora, carefully. The cat bristled, as if ready to pounce. Fade noticed the movement, stepping away respectfully. - He doesn't like me…- She pouted.
- We don't like you. - Ryo snorted.
Fade turned to Ryo, gripping her heels. She put her chin on her knees, watching him intently, like a curious cat.
- You know each other well... He was accepted at the Cafe on the same day you were registered. Maybe you two share birthdays. - She looked at the two, giving a slight smile. - Sora... Sky... Yeah. It matches with the Night.
Sora meowed, looking at Fade as if he planned to rip her neck off. Ryo, with his hands close to his boots where he hid a knife, was thinking the same.
Fade blinked a few times and straightened her legs, sitting in the lotus position in front of him.
- I didn't come to disturb your safe place, Yoru. It wasn't intentional for me to end up at the same Neko Cafe as you. I won't be in the way anymore. - She tilted her head to the side, giving a slight smile. - But I'm glad to meet another cat lover.
Ryo looked her up and down, still tense. She represented danger and all his instincts told him to attack or flee. He stood in the same spot, as if waiting for her to make some offensive move. She looked to the side, with a white cub passing by her. Fade held out her hand, catching the kitten's attention. He sniffed at Fade's hand and licked it, allowing her to pick him up and caress him. Ryo and Sora exchanged glances, having an internal conversation that only those who had known each other since their cradle could have.
- I'm not a cat lover. - He spoke finally, incisive. Which wasn't a complete lie. He would hate to have to worry about a cat in his apartment. Sandboxes repulsed him. - Sora is my friend. That’s it. - Ryo's ears got hot from the words spoken out loud. Heavens, that was ridiculous. But it was true. So much so that the cat meowed in agreement.
Fade nodded, letting the kitten play with her coat.
- You are good friends.
And how they were.
Ryo remembered the birthdays he spent playing with Sora at that Cafe. He remembered the few people he'd taken to meet the cat, as if he needed their approval to have a relationship with them. Sora never liked anyone and the two had great fights over it. Ryo always ended up getting all scratched up in these fights and soon he was the first to apologize. Ryo stole a master key from that Cafe because he knew that, at some point, he would be so distressed that he would have to go there to cry into the soft black fur in the middle of the night. Sora was the kind of grumpy cat who would never deny Ryo's hug.
If Ryo had a friend, it was definitely that crabby old cat.
- Yes. - He finally spoke, shrugging his shoulders.
Fade nodded, grinning.
- 300 credits.
- What? - Ryo raised an eyebrow, not understanding what she was saying.
- 300 credits and I don't post the pictures I took of you with Sora. - She rested her cheek on her hand, caressing the kitten in her lap. - And you'll start treating Raze better.
- What?? - Ryo repeated, with indignation. Sora's pupils narrowed. - I thought you wouldn't get in the way!?
- I will not. - Fade nodded. - As long as you pay me 300 credits and treat Raze well. - The Turkish agent narrowed her eyes on the two. Even as she looked at them, she didn't know if the growl she'd heard was coming from Ryo or Sora. - The girl is kind to everyone. You have no reason to be rude to her.
- She's loud and...
- 350.
- Fade??
- 400.
Ryo stopped talking, dumbfounded.
Fade gave one more smile. Ryo might be friends with Sora, but the man was still embarrassed to admit that he regularly went to a cute Neko Cafe. Shame was a funny feeling. It was the feeling of humiliation generated by an inhibition created, several times, by the own person. Shame could easily be used to manipulate someone.
It was called blackmail, and Fade has some pride in being an expert at it.
- No one else will know about your secret place, Yoru. - Fade smiled gently, letting the kitten climb her arm. - Seems like a small price to pay.
Ryo pressed his lips together, glaring at her. For a moment, Fade thought he wasn't going to fall for that one. If Ryo used his head a little, he'd realize that no one but him would care if he liked kittens.
- Right. - He spoke through gritted teeth.
Fade beamed, catching the kitten before he fell.
- Good choice! - Fade held the kitten in front of her, rocking him slightly. - Isn't it, cutie? - She made her voice thinner to speak to the kitten, in a jovial aspect.
Ryo and Sora looked at the woman with disdain. They definitely didn't like her.

"woman's touch" by Bushbaby is my new fav song. I've had it on repeat a lot
it’s such a tune. too bad we don’t actually enjoy literal women touches. anyway i peeped one of my fav playlists last nite and i’ve got some new stuff to share. this first one is sooo good
this one ^ is so incredibly reminiscent of early 2000s video game OST music especially the type you would hear in street racing or arena first person shooters. love it
the bassline melody ^ reminds me so much of gran turismo music. the type of music you’re playing while driving high end sport luxury grand tourers.
the overall composition, and amount of sounds at play here ^ is incredible to me. such a great example of house/electronic music still requiring technical skill and musical theory no matter how “simple” the genre can sound or how “simple” ppl think it is to make. this track invokes such a visual landscape in my mind it’s crazy. a reminder this genre can be just as rich in musical complexity as any other. tbh this applies to quite a few tracks on here lol.
also new girls of the internet is super nice
