Vitze European champion Harald Wöhler hapless in Meppen!

On the new gravel Track of the MACC the DRCV master of 1999 Uwe Bavendick could show what he has on this! In a thrilling race he could overhaul leading Markus Rausch this and take over the leadership! The Vitze European champion Harald Wöhler was unlucky with the last row in the second run, no more chance to overhaul the strong Uwe Bavendick on the demanding train. It was however an indescribable picture, to see as two to three Spezial-Cross vehicles drove besides each other through the curves; and this cross mostly!

In the second run Harald Wöhler could start from the first row, and show all of them who the real sir is in the ring! After two fast rounds he could have tackled it relatively quietly,

IIn the third run he had  to start from behind again, and correspondingly was making progress heavy. When Harald finally then had the second place Inn and wanted to blow to the attack on Uwe Bavendick drove Torsten Klaka about motivated anyway, well a little to much for him, to the tail so strongly, wing tore this off including the right rear wheel!  Trotzdem zweiter Gesamtrang für Harald.

However, ultrarapid races also were at the agenda in all other classes because the new trayectory in Meppen did justice to the expectations to speed and driving fun fully. After initial dust development, the training put fast which one for himself after, though, curve outputs came however in the reconciles weak points of the gravel surface to day. The cover wasn't thick and compressed sufficiently so yet, Spezialcross crossways driving therefore vehicles towards duration of sufficient! The consequence was, dlarger stone chunks broke loose, and you span about the Trayectory. This then looked more spectacular than it was actual usually, however!  A spectator unfortunately was slightly injured however at this. How we heard later from the race doctor this spectator was however in inebriated state and stayed in a restricted area, !

The few weak points of the new trayectory at all events were recognized fast and can be started with with the further consolidation for the next year so. The curve outputs will be compressed further and spilled with concrete. For the spectator protection catch fences are installed in the curves!

The race 2001 will take place most likely on May 20th!

Many thanks to all driver and spectator who have followed our invitation and have gone to the race in Meppen!

Till next year
