He began competing on the top European RallyCross Championship (ERC) in 1991 and earned his first ERC race win in his native Sweden in 1992. He has finished runner-up in the ERC three times (2004, 2005, 2009). In 2010, he tied for third with fellow XG racer Liam Doran. He has been competitive in the U.S. Global RallyCross Championship in 2011, with two podiums in head-to-head competition.
