screenThe SCOOTER CENTER was at the 1st Italian Customshow in Riva on Lake Garda.

“Gardasee” sounds great - but unfortunately we only saw the lake when we drove past on arrival and departure. But the long way and the work were worth it.

The custom show took place together with the “Motorissma” car and motorcycle fair and had its own large hall. What is new and unusual for a custom show is that the show lasted 2 days. Around 60 customizers exhibited their Lambretta and Vespa scooters. Incidentally, the proportion and quality of the Lambrettas was clearly superior here.

bgm superchargedRacing timing - but correct!

With the bgm PRO Racing Wave there is finally a racing wave with reasonable timing. The times are 110 ° opening before top dead center and 65 ° closing after top dead center. This finally puts an end to the annoying blowback and the better filling can also be converted into performance. The inlet area of ​​the rotary valve cheek is flow-optimized and polished. The width of the rotary valve cheek is 17,4 mm, making it the only shaft on the market that offers the option of milling really large areas using the rotary valve control.

Vespa World Days Zell am See

Vespa World Days Zell am See 2009

 

Yeeeeeha!

Go Vespisti, Go!

Tutto buono, hello, ciao!

An estimated 5.000 Vespa drivers have put Zell am See into a state of emergency over the last few days ...
The ride with about 2.000 scooters on the Großglockner (3.780m) was a highlight - but today Zell was rocked !!!

The main road was firmly in the hands of the scooter drivers and the drivers puked! Sure, Vespa has right of way ;-)
The local gastronomy provided the meeting with subtle après-ski music from 22.00 p.m. (by DJ Ötzi / Wolfgang Petri / AC-DC)
and so one tire after another was burned under the supervision of the local gendarmerie !!!!!

("... OK Burn - but you go to jail alone! ...")
(Chief to Enzo!)

Vespa World Days 2009 Vespa Burnout Rally 200 Vespa Meet in Zell am See

Buona Notte - Tanta Lotte!

 

st830118The following snippets of words give a small impression of Vespa World Days Day 2: individual fragments, snapped internals ... from the SCOOTER CENTER team in Zell am See.

“Today: Day 2. For some of us, day 1.
Crystal clear streams. Cool blonde. Bye.
Less than 8 liters per 100km. 11 hours on GTs 250 & 300 and under 3,5 liters on 100km.

Hello good night. "
Until tomorrow.

Cimg0982After a stopover in Munich and a fantastic schnitzel in the Ayinger Brauhaus, we arrived in Zell am See today.
The diesel is almost 10 cents cheaper in Austria - so the transit combination was driven down to a range of 13 km. It's just a shame that there was still this mountain between the gas station and us - and suddenly it was just there 0km range ;-) ...

Vespa races at the Nürburgring

Classic Race at the Nürburgring scooter race

Last weekend the 19th run of the “Cologne Course” from MSC Porz took place.

We from SCOOTER CENTER TEAM were again represented in large numbers.

After the final preparations and joint inviting of all the equipment and the racing scooters on Saturday morning, it was finally around 14:30 p.m. towards the ring. Once there, we met many familiar faces. The large CONTINENTAL TENT, the grill, the racing scooters etc. were quickly unloaded and set up.

Nürburgring Classic Scooter Race 2009 Scooter race on the Nürburgring

After the technical acceptance, transponder assembly and the legendary driver briefing, the final preparations were made on the scooters.

Luckily got that SCOOTER CENTER TEAM still the box no. 25. So the very rainy Saturday evening with a barbecue under the tent, music and the typical gasoline conversations was a complete success for those present from the Classic Scooter racing scene.

It wouldn't be the ring if it weren't for rain and sun on a weekend, an old Nürburgring rabbit once told me. The same thing happened on Sunday at 8:00 a.m. with the first coffee it was still quite humid and punctually at 10:00 a.m. for training it was nice and dry.

Almost all of our 12 scooters got through more or less well, but even our “T-Roller” was still used.

Fortunately, a lot of spectators came to the ring. Many familiar faces from the scooter scene were present. Overall, drivers from all parts of Germany but also from AT, GB, BE, FR and even Canada were represented.

Vespa races at the Nürburgring

Scooter Center successful and with a lot of fun at the start

At about 14:00 the start finally took place, the one with a
- 2nd place in regularity,
- the fastest "girl scooter" and
- with 12 scooters from 70 starters, on our part
was generally very satisfactory. We are already looking forward to the next race.

Greetings to all contributors - see you soon and get well soon to start number 6.

Oliver Kluger Vespa Racing Nurburgrin 2009

Scooter race on the Nürburgring 2009

Since 2004, regular scooter races have taken place on the Nürburgring again.

We owe this opportunity to the MSC Porz, who offers a “regularity run” for classic scooters as part of the Cologne course. For most of us that means: evenly full throttle! ;-)

The SCOOTER CENTER has been represented by the racing team every year since 2004.

On Saturday was heavy rain in the dry SCOOTER CENTER Box grilled and screwed in the paddock.
We were able to greet many friends and familiar faces again. The hard core was swept out of the box at 1:30 - after all, the first training session was scheduled for 10:40 on Sunday.

 

Sunday came up with the best weather. During training we had 20 minutes to determine the fastest drivers and then to determine the starting grid. In the first row of the grid there were 1 starters from SCOOTER CENTER Team (Harry Barlow & Christian Schneider).

If the weather was fine, repairs and maintenance work could be carried out in the open air after the first training session. After the SCK grill had given everything again at noon, the race started.

The Green Hell took its toll: of 65 starters, only 45 made it to the finish (cancellations, no accidents)

The SCOOTER CENTER Team was able to record several successes:

Place 2 Christian Schneider (Regularity evaluation)
Tanya Kluger - fastest woman in the field ;-)

The next appointment at the Nürburgring for classic scooters is September 13 “Renoldus Sprint”

The SCOOTER CENTER is looking forward to it!
