DSC_2822A very special affair at our Max Speed Festival were the Italian racing team from Berghem. The stunning sprinting Lambrettas were one thing, even nicer were the lads that ride these beasts.

Sauro ‚Tiranno‘ Roncelli, Francesco ‚Magher‘ Mazzoleni, Fabrizio ‚Nonna Vittoria‘ Gotti and Marco ‚Zio Mario‘ Cortinovis found lots of new friends in Germany. And most of us admired theitr work and the relaxed attitude towards life. After their 800 km journey from the surroundings of Milan, they took it easy during the morning and noon. The technical approval (formality) and to have a look at the racing procedure were enough until lunch. Anyhow it was their first time on a track with such a long distance. The usual distance for sprint meetings in Italy is 150 meters.

MautstelleYeeeeeha !

Go Vespisti, Go !

Tutto buono, Servus, Ciao !

Approximated 5.000 Vespisti have partied like it have -probably- never been done before there. More than 2.000 scooterists have taken part in the ride out to the Großglockner (at 3.780 meters height). A rehersal for the wild night that had to come!

The main street was firmly occupied by the Vespisti crowd. Really twisting the melons of the car drivers with the Vespa having right of way everywhere and everytime.
The local bars decided to spin the local mix of Apres Ski Music with the things like DJ Ötzi, Wolfgang Petri and like minded stuff.

To give it a proper Run atmosphere Enzo decided to do some burn outs and bounced some rear tyres with Oliver immaculate Rally 200. The local cops looked surprised and thanks to the superiority of the Vespisti nothing else happened. So no arresting in Austria. Like times have changed…

Buona Notte – Tanta Lotte !

st830118Now we are getting literarily. Some few syllables have to give you the complete picture of the atmosphere in Zell and all the things going on with our team.

“Today: 2nd day. For some of us the first day.
Cristall clear rivers. Tschüsch.
Less than 8 literes per 100 km. 11 hour ride on our GTs 250 & 300 and less than 3.5 literes per 100 100 km.

Servus, good night.”
Some proper words tomorrow!

cimg0982After a stop over im Munich for some proper Schnitzel and beer we arrived in Zell am See today.
Because of the cheaper price for Diesel in Austria – over 10 cent per litre savings, we tried to cross the border for filling. With the high tech dashboard reading 13 km coverage and only 10 km to go, all seemed to work fine. Despite for this hill and the sudden reading ood the coverage of 0 km.

Gerade noch rechtzeitig für die Nitrolympix am Hockenheimring am 16./17. August haben wir unseren Zweizylinder fertig kriegen können. Das erste mal, nur grob abgestimmt, auf der Straße war er auf dem DSSC Stage 6 Team Meeting in Rothenburg.

Um den Twin also noch was einstellen zu können, sind unser Fahrer Andi und ich am Donnerstag noch kurzentschlossen zum Testen auf eine passende Strecke gefahren (Flugplatz MZH). Siehe Videos und Bilder.
