Did we have great week-end? You bet! Our race at the 2009 Jim Clark Revival was absolutely fantastic. Even though it started with a couple of fried caliper seals, the Oly Express crew once more worked wonders, so that we even finished second in class behind the Porsche 911 RSR of Daniel Schrey. Along the way, laping the 3.4 km roadcourse in 1.50s, we had great battles with Mathias Beetz and Bernhard Voslamber's BMW 2002 tii as well as Urs Müller's absolutly beautiful Aston Martin DB4 GT. Add to this a few demo sessions on the big oval alonsige Stefan Oberndorfer's Skoal Bandit Lumina, where Bjoern drove the Charger and you can imagine that we had great fun. Our thanks go to Ronny Bredhauer and his crew who did a flawless job and used all the advantages of the Lausitzring track! We'll be back for Jim Clark Revival 2010.
The MOTUL Charger at speed on the main straight.
The driver relaxing before his run. Good thing to see an apple and not a can of OLY there!
Well, the Ford did have a power to weight and an aero advantage!
Now how are we going to fix that ? Hilmar already had an idea that worked!
The quiet before the storm.
Getting her ready to race!
Yes, 1 second better in every session! Next time I need to stay out of the gravel in the final race...

Great job, nice sound and exciting race at Jim-Clark Revival 2009 on Eurospeedway Lausitz. The Charger was a big "eye- and ear-catcher" last weekend. :-)
