Wengen is tough!

January 4th, 2006

Qualification for Wengen is now open. Wengen is a very long and tough race track. You have to be really sensitive for the upper part, round curves, some of them need to be droven directly, others very round to keep the speed. The “Brüggli-S” requires some attention too, but can be passed with a good right and an early left turn to keep the pace.

The second part of the track again requires a lot of sensitive curve racing. Taking the direct path causes some loss of speed, which easily sums up to 1-2 secs. So try to find a good compromise between round and direct racing.

ludwigma set the first scores with a very good 2:42 time, but was soon overtaken by myself. In the last 2 days DrPhlox, ElGrecco and especially JoAce stepped in to improve our clubs race-time. Our newest member schurli86 (he would have beaten us in the first 2 races! So I’m glad he joins late) again showed some good competition, but JoAce managed to pass him by more then 1 sec currently. But I’m sure you all will keep on going, until you crush my leadership!

If you need tips, just ask, everyone is happy to help, even if you manage to pass him afterwards ;-)

Keep on racing, Wengen will start on Jan. 13th and our target is to get into the Top 30 clubs. I’ll definitly go for it, so join me for the race!
