Swede Ulf Ögge took the low qualifier position on his Buell after two
sessions with a fantastic 7.104 sec followed by Fredrik Fredlund
Finland at 7.109 (Fredlund and the rest of teams on site except Ögge
run Suzukis).
After a place in the final at Santa Pod for Ögge, but not having got to a satisfying of performance at that event, the team was relieved that it all fell in place at Tierp Arena. Fredlund had support on site in form of NHRA Pro Stock Bike pros Karen and Gary Stoffer which we gather have become well acquainted with European Pro Stock Bike Racing through the last year of co-operation with Fredlund. Fredlund have set the quickest ET in Europe with 7.048 (not backed up to count as record) and the feeling is both Fredlund and Ögge have the capacity to anytime soon break Becks record of 7.078 sec. Ögge came closest at this event with 7.085!
Martin Bishop (UK), stable championship rider managed a new personal best of 7.281 and Elvira Karlsson Sweden who runs the full championship managed 7.51 sec during qualifications. Riders that we saw on track for the first time this year included Timo Savolainen Finland (ran 7.90 sec during qualifications) and Kenneth Vik Norway which normally performs on a level that can win rounds. 7.29 sec was Kenneths ET during qualifications which was good for the 5th spot in the ladder.
