Rain battle in Austria
"DART Racing Team" takes 12th place in the 8-hour race in Austria

In St. Veit an der Glan / Carinthia, the "Spring Race" took place for the second time on the ÖAMTC test track. Since the race this year was supposed to be four weeks later than last year, we had been looking forward to pleasant spring temperatures - a mistake, as it turned out to be.

With rain and temperatures around 8 degrees, everyone started in the morning 40 registered racing teams punctually at 7.00 a.m. The interplay between wet and dry stages lasted all day. Fortunately, we had good rain tires for racing (Sava "Monsun Racing Soft"), which made driving much safer even in the wet. The four tire changes between dry and rain tires have paid off, a higher number of laps has brought us so far forward!

Smaller failures such as the vibration of plugs and the Flywheel unfortunately took us valuable time. Nevertheless, we could as third best German team with our 22 PS Polini Cast iron engine with 33 Keihin and "Franz" exhaust an very gratifying 8th place drive in!

We would like to thank our sponsors very much
