Fallrace - scooter racing in Austria

,

THANKS VC KÖFLACH & DEN CHILLIS for the GREAT event WAHNSINNS WETTERGLÜCK and therefore also a very successful final of the long distance cup!
Congratulations to the winning teams Stoffi / GOA and Undi !!

Get well soon, the injured and the spectator who was probably affected in the last accident,
also from our side, hope it has no effect on further events.

We were still in the workshop on Thursday evening and screwed the engine together further, packed the car at the same time, hung the engine, rewired everything, re-sealed the tank, etc. - briefly made a few runs and then around 2 o'clock on the 948km autobahn I drove for the third time this season and were happy to be at the guesthouse around 12:30.

After a short rest period at the lake, we are on the track, greeted the RWRT guys and then set up everything with the Hartz4 / Signs & Styles team. In the evening we had a short meal and all the registration formalities were clarified and then finally after 42h Around 22 p.m. to BED.
During the morning practice, everything went pretty well so far and with starting position 30 it didn't really matter to start from there at the Le Mans start and the 11H race in front of you.
So far we drove quite far forward in the first time and (place 6 entertaining later 9) the PARMAKIT SP09 with bridge
and 51 BGM wave ,33 Keihin ,Big bertha ,Polini membrane nozzle ran very well forward on the straight…. Unfortunately I lay down on the right side for a moment and later around 13 p.m. our front brake line had a leak!
That was, of course, a major setback Fortunately, nothing worse had happened to Alex. (on the long straight on the house - suddenly no more front brake!
The whole thing, a little tank ventilation problem, a little slip by Alex then of course cost places and so we are from 19th place to the 14. space hazards. With that we were very satisfied and happy to have ALL come through the race safe and sound and proud that once again no engine broke down!

At this point, we can really say that no long-distance engine (Springrace 2010/11 - Hungary 2010/2011 - Fallrace 2011) was defective but always other things (ignition replacement, vibrating Cdi plug, broken carburetor clamp, rim defect with brake drum, etc.) for minor failures and Caused setbacks.

It is clear that you tend not to ride in the top 5 region due to certain driving skills or Recklessness? / Courage?
(You are over the top like Markus Angleiter and a few more ..)
And thus a praise to all the teams who have put all the work and effort into these races and thus participate in the whole thing!
Plus the financial aspect and health risk factor. The 38 teams made their way there
(as well as the Springrace events), speaks for a high response to long distance races….

Then back on Sunday and at home around 22pm - woke up with sore muscles on Monday and just thought what a movie again….

With this in mind, once again, MANY THANKS to all of our sponsors and that SCOOTER CENTER - we look forward to next season
Greetz 2 to all Torsten

Team DART Racing 14th place / 7th overall place in the long-distance cup

Holiday in Hungary -> Vespa ESC & 6h race

, , , ,

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

RUN & RACE 2011

, ,

RUN & RACE 2011

It is really worth the trip. Both the run and the RACE feeling mix here in a unique way.

We traveled with the new updates in our luggage, like last year, with the SCOOTER - CENTER test bench to "check" the standard class scooters and to give every scooter friend who had traveled the opportunity to measure their performance.

This was used well on Friday and Saturday and luckily the weather was good throughout the weekend.

On Friday evening, bar sports were also celebrated in various classes and thus a little later for one or the other racing driver.

The next day the sun was shining predominantly except for a few drops at noon you couldn't say anything against the weather and the atmosphere was just great.

Unfortunately there were 2 more serious accidents this weekend, but as far as I know, both drivers are doing better again and it should be mentioned that these accidents were not caused by outside influences. Nevertheless, there is still a certain risk factor and because of that, I want to RESPECT the really fast guys who all swept the racetrack for less than a minute.

As in Mirecourt, we were represented in classes 1 & 2 and at the moment we are still in the middle of the field, as our cornering speeds can be improved. ;))

In this sense to Wackersdorf or Hungary

Vespa races in Mirecourt - France

, ,

Vespa races MirecourtESC goes France

For the third time we visited our friends from scoothole (the French GSF) with whom an ESC run will be held in Mirecourt / France this year.

As usual we had it SCOOTER CENTER Test bench here and arrived at the racetrack this year even in the most wonderful weather.

Some had used the bridge day and had already arrived on Thursday in order to have enough preparation time on the track for the races on Saturday.

The event was again very well organized, the ambience wonderful and in my eyes one of the most beautiful but also a very exhausting route of the ESC.

On Saturday the sun was shining all day and luckily nothing worse happened for the rest of the day except for a violent collision.

The starting field was the largest since the ESC was founded and with around 150 starters France, Austria, Germany and the Netherlands a colorful mix to it.

Dennis drove his Polini EVO with 51 Polini rotary valve shaft & Franz exhaust.
Alex ditto with Polini EVO with 51 Mazzucelli shaft and 105 BGM connecting rod, membrane intake manifold & fire magic exhaust.
Torsten the Parmakit W Force with 54 BGM wave & Big Bertha exhaust.
All three racing scooters are with the MMW Hartz 4 coupling equipped and one Vespatronic.

We started this year for the first time in the ESC in classes 1 & 2 and were very satisfied with our results.

Fortunately, the bad weather only moved over the kart track towards evening and so we could go home on Saturday evening with a clear conscience.

Thanks again to our sponsors!
The results can be seen on the ESC page -> http://www.eurochallenge.de/ and we are looking forward to Liedolsheim (RUN & RACE)!

In this sense: you see each other / on the route
