Hi Racers,
Before the race
Despite the good result at the DHI Cup I've changed the basic setup on my Serpent. With the new setup I was able to drive very good lap times on my home track. Sunday before the race I was in Vamdrup practicing on the permanent indoor track. I was able to fine-tune my car and I tried various tire additives. The carpet is the same as in Herning at the DRCMU 1 - very tricky to drive, because the carpet has several spots with less grip. I was able to press my best lap time down to 10:81.
Practice at the race
On Saturday before the race free practicing was announced....

Unfortunately the practice did not well at all, the car felt relatively OK but it was too slow and after the first timed practice I was on 17th place :-(! In the second session it was even worth, I was 21st!)

I could gain the lead but unfortunately I made 3 or 4 small mistakes, I lost 5 seconds and I finished on 10th position.

In this heat, the car was not so good and very difficult to drive so I was only 14th!
