12 hour Åtvidaberg 14-15 August 2009

Åtvidaberg track

Åtvidaberg MK hosted the annual 12-hour Open 12 race this year.
Previous years we have been hosted by Hjärup Slotracing Center in Hjärup in the south of Sweden.

The track was built by Lars Harrysson  with help of the club 2007 and is similar to the ISRA worlds track of 2008. If you like banana turns you will be more than happy here.

The practice started on Friday with all eight teams present. With four drivers in each team you have a lot of drivers that like to practice and learn the track.

In the evening the premises was closed down and we all got onto a small guide tour by a "train" followed by a boat ride when we made a stop to see and listen to the sound of a sun canon.
