Logo Casa Performance

Both with Victor Tessera from Casa Lambretta as well as with Dean Orton from the Rimini Lambretta Center we are not only connected on business, but also on friendly terms. We only recently got to know about our collaboration with Vittorio in connection with Lambretta benches lost a word or two. Maybe more will come soon.

More than just a "business relationship"

Just as good is our relationship with Dean Orton and the entire Rimini Lambretta Center team. Mutual visits to Open Days and Custom Shows are always a great pleasure far beyond work and usually end in the early hours of the morning.

Our visit to the Open Day from Rimini Lambretta Center in April 2015 gave us the first foretaste of the upcoming Casa Performance Performance. So we were allowed to test the shop demonstrator with 305 BSG Corse Motor and finally on the Corso. Quite an impressive experience.

Run & Race 2016, Pomposa, Italy - September 16-18.09.2016, XNUMX

That was last weekend Scooter Center drove to the Adriatic coast for the Run & Race finals of the European Scooter Challenge. Thanks to the participation of the British Scooter Sport Organization (BSSO) and several other international drivers, the spectators are offered a good spectacle on the kart track.

With the Lambretta to the Adriatic

Sounds like a vacation, but the vacation is long gone. We had 3.000 kilometers and a few days of hard work in Bella Italia ahead of us. Our bus was packed with equipment and our best bgm parts for that Run & Race Italy

The journey started on Thursday in Cologne. After 1.000 km from Lake Garda, on Friday we drove the remaining 250 km to Pomposa on the Adriatic Sea with the scooters. So on Friday it is time to leave early and the tour group splits up into a tour guide and an escort vehicle. The tour guide is done by two Race Tour Lambrettas with 28 Polini carburetors and the bgm big box:

  1. Lambretta DL 150 with 225 bgm PRO RaceTour
  2. Lambretta LI 150 1st series 195 bgm PRO RaceTour

Lambretta DL & LI

 

Tough test drive in the rain and pothole slalom

Test drive in Bella Italia: summer, blue skies and every now and then a stop at the car grill. That's the plan! Half an hour after the start, reality overtakes our wishful thinking. After the motorway tunnel in Verona we drive into the pouring rain. Fortunately, there is no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothing - and we had plenty of that with us!

But nothing helps and until shortly before Pomposa we continue on the Autostrada in the rain.
Fortunately, we did not notice the violent storm directly. Several cars in guard rails and trenches, but give an impression of what must have been going on shortly before us.

Ride a scooter in the rain

Despite the capricious weather conditions and potholes, we are quite brisk. The cruising speed with the motors is around 110 km / h (GPS). The new TomTom Vio shows us the way. Both the bgm motors and the bgm chassis keep what is promised and the journey is quick and easy. The bottom line is a great tour that is a lot of fun.

Big Run & Race in Italy

As the rain stops a bit before Pomposa and the thick cloud cover tears up, we luckily do not arrive completely drenched. The welcome from Rimini Lambretta Centers Marco and the organizers of SIR is warm as usual. After the first cups of white wine, we first move into our luxurious bungalow.

Our luxury bungalow

There will be a 'menu' on both evenings. To be honest, we imagined it to be quite different in Italy ... Both evenings will be quite long for Philipp thanks to the super nighters.

The breakfast on Saturday morning is great, unfortunately we don't have much time because the stand needs to be set up and we are excited to see what awaits us. Breakfast by the sea in the best weather.

run-race-italy-2016_-18

Thanks to our routine, setting up our stand is quite easy for us - at least for those who were sober in bed before 5 a.m.
Accompanied by the incessant howling of sophisticated scooter motors, we present our bgm product range throughout the day and have many great conversations with old and new friends from:

  • Italy
  • Switzerland
  • Germany
  • Austria
  • Greece
  • England
  • Cyprus

Our photos from the weekend

RACE - The races

The exciting races take place directly across the street, where fierce battles were held down to the last meter. The Italian teams from CASA Performance and Parmakit dominate the big classes here - LINK bgm TEILE RENNTEAM. Our Austrian friend Stoffi impressively wins the standard class with the Polini engine -> LINK Shop standard class. Michi from the Stoffi team, we hang our camera around - this is what a one-class training session looks like:

RUN - the scooter meeting

Run & Race - there is also a scooter run during the race. The Italian clubs have stands on the grounds of the racetrack and you can buy parts or merchandise, marvel at scooters and talk about petrol everywhere.
The evening events take place on a camping and bungalow park where all participants were accommodated. The announced concert on Saturday is unfortunately canceled, the Open Air Nighter boiled over until the police arrive. The event is spontaneously moved inside and, if the mood is even better, the party will continue until the early hours of the morning.
After an Italian breakfast on Sunday morning, saying goodbye is difficult! But this time the 250 km return journey lies ahead of us in the most beautiful sunshine. For the last part we leave the motorway and take a scenic route through the hinterland and mountains. We reach our base camp on Lake Garda in a good mood. We still had a lot to do here:

  • Photoshoot Kerresinhio Quartet
  • Visit to the piston manufacturer Meteor in Milan
  • Photos & videos

RUN & RACE? la Corsa al Raduno 2016

RUN & RACE 2016, Pomposa, Italy - 16.09 - 18.09.2016

Am third weekend of September takes place in Pomposa the final run the European Scooter Challenge (short: ESC - www.eurochallenge.de / www.facebook.com/eurochallenge) instead of. The name and the program pay homage to the legendary Run & Race events of Stonhead SC in Liedolsheim.

SIR (Scooterclubs Italiani Riuniti - www.scooterclubitaliani.com) a joint Italian meeting for the first time. the 1st national Run of SIR so to say.

In addition to the main organizers of the ESC and SIR, the meeting is being massively pushed by Casa Lambretta, Parmakit and the Rimini Lambretta Center. That Scooter Center Of course, we will not miss it and will be there with a bgm stand and catalogs. So what can we expect?

FRIDAY

Friday can be relaxed training on the Pomposa race track. In addition to the ESC drivers, drivers from all other European racing series are also invited. A joint coach is chartered for the drivers of the BSSO and the transport of the racing scooters is also organized and takes place via three central locations in England.

The nighter takes place on Friday evening - like all events (except the races) - in the holiday home Florence instead of. The SIR DJ's will play until the early hours of the morning.

 

SATURDAY

The ESC finale, that's all you have to say !?

In the evening there will be a joint dinner, the concert of THE BEAT followed by a nighter. Both open air and with an explosive mix of SIR Scooterists and Austrian and German ESC drivers who are celebrating the end of their racing series. The Dean from Rimini will have hit the nail on the head with his prognosis of a “mental jolly up”.

Admission to the run is € 25 for the whole weekend (€ 20 for SIR members, ESC and BSSO drivers).

You can find information about the cost of the race here: www.eurochallenge.de.

ACCOMMODATION

The holiday home is two kilometers from the racetrack Florence. You can share one of the bungalows with several people at low cost. With its own swimming pool, beach, beauty spa, two restaurants and other unusual amenities, the extension of the stay before and or after the race is almost a necessity. All evening events (nighter, concerts, etc pp) also take place in the Florence instead.

https://holidayvillageflorenz.com/de

Booking inquiries are best sent directly to: gianluca.luciani@campingflorenz.com. If there was no answer after three days, Dean from the Rimini Lambretta Center is happy to help out in Italian. Simply send an email to after the waiting period dean@riminilambrettacentre.com .

If three of you share a bungalow, the cost per head is € 60. There are: two nights, breakfast on Saturday and Sunday morning, dinner on Saturday, the nighter on Friday and the concert by THE BEAT and the nighter on Saturday evening. Scooters can be parked by the bungalow.

All in all, an extension of the excursion to Pomposa is a good idea. And the pool and beach promise a welcome cooling off after the races in sweltering Italy.

So it’s best not to hesitate and book now!

The promise can be taken seriously:

WE WANT YOU TO ENJOY RACING IN ITALY AND WE'LL DO EVERYTHING WE POSSIBLY CAN TO MAKE SURE THIS A MEMORABLE HISTORIC EVENT FOR ALL THOSE WHO PARTAKE!
