For decades, Icelanders have been competing in formula off -road; a series of races where the competitors on V-8 4x4´s tackle very steep hills as well as drive floating on water. Points are awarded for driving within the prescribed tracks (usually about 6 tracks pr. race) as well as how far you get on each track, Sometimes a time bonus is offered too.

Hi Cab, Icelandic is an Indo-European language, belonging to the group of North Germanic languages, to be specific. This group also includes Danish, Norwegian, Swedish, and Faroese. Of those languages, Norwegian and Faroese (spoken in the Faroe Islands) are the most closely related to Icelandic. Spoken by just over 300.000 Icelanders the Icelandic language has not changed much since Viking settled Iceland just before year 1000.
Well known "Icelandic" words in English with an English spelling and pronunciation are probably "berserk" as in "go berserk", "geyser", "saga and of course "Vikings."
