SSC Kvällsrace

On Monday the 4:th of March we had the third race in the new SSC Saloon Series.

The field consisted of 18 drivers but could have been 19 if one had not turned up to late.

The track was faster than ever or was it the drivers?
It wasn't enough to be the existing qualifying record to be among the top two. The same could be said about the race pace.

The races becomes harder and harder with more and more competitors. 18 drivers could be more since we did not have Juha (in Peru on holiday) Micke Sundgren, Jörgen Andersson and some others present.
But, it could also become less if we in our intense racing yell too much to our competitors/marshals. Something to have in mind.
