The fascination „Italian Open“ – In most cases, steps backward are something negative that doesn’t signify success and progress. But there are also cases where this is different – such as scooter racing in Italy.

Things will get pretty interesting on Sunday: the final of the Italian Stage6 Cup in Nizza Monferrato will take place! The organiser Ricambio Rapido will broadcast the race live on the internet.

Have a look at:

2008 is the first year that the Stage6 Cup in Italy takes place. At the moment, every other cup in Italy is organised by one specific manufacturer and riders are compelled to use the products of the respective manufacturer, which often are so expensive that young riders cannot afford them. This is why the idea to offer an Open Cup - that promotes the competition between different manufacturers - as part of the Stage6 Cup fell on fertile ground. The Italian Stage6 Cup, whose rules are based on those of the German Cup, has quickly become a showdown for the best riders in Italy.

There are four racing classes. New riders usually register in the Stage6 70cc Racing class, for which the Italian Stage6 importer offers a complete tuning package for 990 EUR. In addition to the Stage6 Racing class, there is the 70cc Open Amateur and the 70cc Open Expert, as well as the TCR/Stage6 85cc class. While at the first race TCR looked after the official team, it is now Filippo “Pippo” Costantino who takes care of the team and maintains the scooters. With Mauro Montagna, Diego Calonaci and Alessandro Blando, Stage6 managed to win round three experienced riders. As the third race was held in Latina, a small town at the sea close to Rome, it was clear we couldn’t miss this. And so flights at 30 EUR were booked with the no-frills airline Ryanair from Frankfurt/Hahn to Rome; among the luggage was the R/T cylinder to give the riders a first glance of what would be in store for them next year. read the rest >

As you may already know, we are trying to break our own record from 2007 at this year’s NitrolympX in August. And this weekend, we had the chance to do a bit of testing on the Yokohama Tuning Festival at the Hockenheimring, i.e. on the very same track where we will be in August. Unfortunately the track was not specially prepared for dragracing, but when you take into account that it is normally quite impossible to get a chance to give it a try on the dragstrip in Hockenheim, we were very satisfied already. And it was really worth the effort, but - just have a look for yourself!

Here you can already see the Official Time Slip (we are on the right lane 1011).
