News on Lambretta topics
Holiday in Hungary Vol.2 was the motto of the last weekend!
In the night of Thursday we took the 1.097 km route and arrived at the Panonia Ring after a 12-hour drive. There were already some friends to be found there and with very summery temperatures, we had the opportunity to train on the kart track on Thursdays and Fridays.
In addition to our long-distance team scooter (PK XL2 with Polini EVO cylinder), we had Alex and Dennis with us, their class 1 racer, as well as my old racer in a new look for class 2. In addition to new chassis modifications, we still had some power in the Parmakit W Force found and so I was curious how the new / old scooter can be driven.
Most of the teams / drivers arrived on Friday, the last ones on Saturday ESC runs queue up and one for Sunday 6h race was on the program!
Am Samstag
There were then 3 more training units for everyone and the championship races began at 14:00 pm!
Here it should be mentioned that in class 2 the driver Markus Angleiter (Team Stoffi) drove the fastest race lap ever and thus faster than that falc Works driver Hilton!
Overall, the lap time level was very high and even one-class scooters under a minute were driven. (For results see http://eurochallenge.de/)
On Sunday
stood that 6h race on, as the 2nd run of the long distance cup. (Consists of Springrace; Hungary and Fallrace)
Last year there was a 4h race on the kart track and this year it was increased to 6h! The temperatures were like last year - EXTREMELY hot - for man and machine!
Starting in 19th position, we were able to work our way forward and after 3 hours we were in 12th place! Unfortunately we lost the carburetor once and had to re-connect it a second time after a broken hose clamp on the carburetor rubber carburettor fix! After that he should hold and so it was a nice 10th place in the end. We shouldn't have continued to drive much longer with our front brake, because it would have lasted for a maximum of 10 minutes!
In the overall ranking
we are now in 7th place and hope in fall race for a good result.
After chilling 2 in the restaurant along the way, we had to SCOOTER CENTER The bus was then loaded again and drove towards home at 11 am on the same day.
Here then again THANKS to ALL of our sponsors !!!
With that in mind, up fall race
DART Racing Team
The SCOOTER CENTER is traditionally a Lambretta - specialist.
Over 20 years of experience with the Lambretta.
In the early 90s, Oliver Kluger and Ulf Schröder published the Lambretta story in the magazine “Motoretta”.
Later did that SCOOTER CENTER Lambretta models imported directly from India.
The Lambretta Catalog is legendary.
The extensive product range for the Lambretta scooter is constantly being expanded and maintained and with the noble House brand “bgm” new, innovative products for Lambretta (& Vespa) are developed. Casa Lambretta stands for high quality repro parts and spare parts from Italy, the SCOOTER CENTER is an official Germany importer.
But the real Lambretta has not been built in Italy for a long time. And even of the production systems sold to India, Lambrettas have not rolled off the assembly line for a long time.
What happened to the brand? Who Owns Lambretta?
The topic is currently back in the media.

Currently running on Arte an interesting report on mods.
Anyone who missed the show or is not receiving an Arte can also watch the film watch online.
Mods & Rockers
1964: Thousands of young people from all over the country engage in brutal street battles in the southern English seaside resort of Brighton. The event is taking on proportions that can no longer be booked under pure hooliganism. The enemy camps consist of supporters of two different youth subcultures, the mods and the rockers.
Their conflict is about clothing, territories, musical tastes and a diametrically opposed attitude to life: The rockers expect nothing from society, which they understand as a machine to destroy their outsider individualism; the mods, on the other hand, want to help shape the system, create a space for themselves in which they can live out their codes, their preferences and their aesthetics.
The documentation reveals the background to this escalation and illustrates the desires and motivations of this radical youth. It is also told how much British youth not only overturned their parents' paradigms, but also shaped the international music scene and fashion.
