Flygvapnet is the Royal Swedish Airforce. Pretty awesome sponsorship deal he struck with them. Owner/driver was Anders Hasselström Unfortunatelly he was killed in a terrible fire in his car in 1988.

Bifrost is from the Vikingmythology, see we bring them up again.
This is what I found at Wikipedia:
In Norse Mythology, Bifröst is the bridge leading from the realm of the mortals Midgard to the realm of the gods Asgard, which the gods travel daily to hold their councils under the shade of the tree Yggdrasil. The bridge itself is the rainbow and its guardian is the god Heimdall. The red color was the flaming fire, which served as a defense against the giants. The bridge is destroyed at the end of the world, Ragnarök. It was built by the Æsir.

If I remember correc the driver of that car got a jailsentence because he and his mother had a major highclass brotheloperation.
