The opening race of the international Lambretta Offroad Cup in Frankenthal was a complete and resounding success in every respect! The focus was on fun and the Lambretta's performance capabilities were impressively confirmed.
The idea was presented by JP-Corse's Jürgen Pippig at the LCD's AGM in Wipperfürth in 2023. And at the end of September, the international starting field of twelve teams will be doing pioneering work. They drove for six hours straight on a full-fledged MotoX track according to national specifications. In comparison, a normal race lasts just over 15 minutes. And in this case with vehicles designed for this purpose, it is all the more impressive.
