World Championship for wing cars
Kouvola, Finland 7-12 June 2005
G-27
On thursday and friday the G-27 class was raced with 27
entries.
Qualifying
Bill Skinner turned a 1,77 lap in the first round followed by
a
1,751 lap in the bye-round and were set to win this qualifying. But as
most
of you already know (if you read on OWH or IMCA) this incredibly fast
time
was topped by Jose Mario from Brazil who drove a 1,748 lap. That
Brazilian
rubber seem to work well.
