Newsletter #13 2012 - the European Finals Review
And so the European Finals was concluded September 6-9th
at Santa Pod Raceway UK during four days which spoiled us with
blue skies and summer heat. A fantastic end to the 2012 FIA and UEM
Championships and the Santa Pod Racers Club and Trakbak crew performed
their tasks to excellency running the event. A great crowd of
spectators had chosen to enjoy the action live and by the end of
the European Finals late Sunday afternoon we finally knew who
all eight new FIA & UEM Champions were!
In this edition we introduce the champions under the "Presenting the Champions" article. In the eight Class reports
we brief you about how the European Finals proceeded in each
championship class and we have included a lot of great photos as always. And don´t miss the Pit Notes provided by Eurodragster.com which will keep you entertained for hours and hours no doubt..
As a special feature we have included the Race Report TV-show in this newsletter! Don´t
miss to watch the show which covers the championship classes and is
broadcasted also on traditional TV channels that can be seen in many
countries.
