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.
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.
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.
