Just a day since we issued the last newsletter and here we go again.. It is a hectic time of the year for Speedgroup and all assoctiated staff and so also for the teams.. Next up the Sweden Internationals at Tierp Arena in Sweden June 14th - 17th!

We schedule for another 2 day live-web TV shows concept Saturday and Sunday at Tierp Arena. Multi camera views, interviews, live diting.. all in HD format. The cost for two days is set to $10, to help cover the extensive costs to do the live streaming web-TV shows on on top of the traditional TV-production. The web-TV and TV-productions are joint projects between Speedgroup as FIA Championship administrator, the UEM Championship promoter and the Championship event organizers (at this event Tierp Arena). www.racing-action.com or www.speedgroup.eu to sign-up for web-TV (opens 1-2 days before the broadcasts starts.)

We have packed this edition with useful information and with what I hope you will find as interesting reading, I feel I need to say no more at this time. I look forward seeing many collegues, teams and fans on site at Tierp Arena!   


Best Wishes,

WWW.DRAGRACING.EU - update
In the new entry and results data system, we currently have 932 drivers and riders entered in the system and most major events in Europe have or will open event entry through the system continuously. It is Swedish time keeping system- and software developer Nitroz in co-operation with Speedgroup which have developed this database system, we are certain will take event entry, event administration and results data reporting to the next level. Most teams manage the task of creating their drivers profiles and entering events without hassle. For the teams that get stuck, we identify the problems as quick as we can and assist to solve any matters. It is a learning process for the teams and organizers in the system, but I must confess I am mighty impressed with how smooth a majority of the users have adopted the system.
