Hoppe wins 3rd Rd of North German Championship


"Shepherd / Sonic driver Lars Hoppe claimed the second victory in a row. The 3rd round of the North German Championship took place on the track of the MSC Braunschweig club. Unfortunately nearly the complete practise and the first round of qualifying was rained out on Saturday but in the evening the track was dry the drivers could hit the track for some practise laps.
On Sunday the weather was much better and the track stayed dry all day. In the morning three rounds of qualifying were held. Hoppe showed an excellent performance with his Sonic powered Velox V8 "PRO" and securred himself the pole-position for the 30-min final followed by Serpent pairing of Andreas Giesa and Merlin Depta with Shepherd / Sonic driver Timo Schröder in 4th position.

The final was an unspectacular affair with the order in the front remaining the same the complete race. Hoppe crossed the finishing line 3 laps in front of Andreas Giesa with Merlin Depta completing the podium in front of Timo Schröder.

In the 1/10th scale class Marcel Schmidt had an excellent debut with his Velox V10 "PRO" and finished in second position behind Stefan Heisterkamp with Michael Böhling completing the podium."

Best regards
Patrick
