Swedish Masters 2008

22-23 of March Hjärup Slotracing Center ran the Swedish Masters.
The race is organized by Lars Harrysson with help from local racers.
Lars and his wife Bev opened up their house for all racers and it was a "all inclusive" event meaning that we had breakfast, lunch and dinner there.

Racers were present from Sweden, Finland, Latvia, Denmark, Britain, Czech Republic and Australia.
