The super twin turned out to be the many explosions and problems. We started with 21 bikes entered but Roman Sixta did not come after his problem in Finland and Torbjörn Svenssons bike was not ready to race. So we had 19 bikes that did pass the technical inspection. 
After qualification was it Hans Olav Olstad against his Norwegian friend Matti, and Matti did take the win since Olstad had some engine problems, but Matti also had some problems and did spray the track with oil that did almost take an hour to clean up. And there was some more problems so Matti could not race in the next round against Lorenz Stauble that did win over Svein Olaf Rolfstad that during qualification did scare us all then the chain brake and made a cloud of  plastic. But for the handy Norwegians was it no problem to fix. It might not been a show winner but id looked okay. On the other half was it Job Heezen that was number two qualifier against Samu Kemppainen from Finland and then Job’s bike stopped was it a win for Samu . But in the next round against Per Bengtsson who had won over Greger Johansson was Per to strong and did win over Samu. An small notice is that in the round between Per and Greger was it some problems with the timing equipment and they had to shot off. Then they did the rerun was I very scared since the stage beam was behaving a little bit strange and I was afraid that we should have some more problems. But nothing happens and there was a good run. So in the semi was it Per Bengtsson against Lorenz Stauble.

Then decided the weather that it was enough of racing. At 16.22 did it start to rain some small drops and all the time then the track was almost ready for race did it start again. And at21.30 decided the race direction that it was to late. Then was still not braking area dry and it started to get dark. But I must say that looking at so many people waiting to get the track dry and helping with this is a very good example of sportsmanship. It was sorry that we did not manage to finish the finals in all classes.

In Super Twin was it very hard this time. 18 riders had entered the race for just the 8 places. We did have riders from many countries and a lot of new Finnish riders that I never seen before. So many that I have hard to understand all new names. But with some good help from our UEM member Jari Halonen was it no problem at all.

Lorenz Stauble that was the number one qualifier followed bye Per Bengtsson from Sweden that did qualify as number two and Job Heezen as number three.  In the first round was it all the low qualifiers that went on and in the semi final was it Stauble against Olstad first. And Lorenze did take the win. In the other semi was it Per Bengtsson against Job Heezen and Per did take that win. So it was number one and two qualifier in the final but this time did number two, Per Bengtsson manage to take the win. That was good for the championship.

Some other small notice is that Jaska Salakari was back on the track with not one but two new bikes that still has some small problems but then that is solved will we see some very good times from this two bikes. There is a lot of new things on these two bikes that if all works may change a lot of ways how to handle such bikes. There is a complete new fuel system.

I must also mention that now did Anders Karling also get his bike to work without any bangs as last year. Every time did he improve the time of the bike so I am waiting for next race for him. At Mantorp will we have a very good field. It is 20 riders that has entered in Super Twin for the 8 bike field on Sunday-
3 records total
