Hockenheim-ring Germany 25th<\/sup> August 2023: After three rounds in northern Europe (Santapod UK and two at Tierp Arena Sweden), all themes travelled to the Rico Anthes Quartermile Track at Hockenheim-ring for another Nitrolympx Weekend. Nitrolympx is the penultimate race before all teams travel back, to Santapod (UK) for the European Finals. Races didn’t start until noon due to a rainy morning. Just as the first two pairs fired up, some drops of rain began to fall, which delayed the races by another twenty minutes. The first pair to go down were Robert Bonasso & Martin Weikum (Pro ET). The sportsman classes got one qualification session, and the FIA\/FIM categories two sessions. Top Qualifiers for the FIA categories are Jndia Erbacher (TF), Sandro Beilio (TM), Jan Ericsson (PM) & Robin Noren (PS). Top qualifiers from the FIM categories are Rickard Gustafsson (TFB), Marcus Christiansen (STB), Mathias Bohlin (SSB), Martin Newbury (PSB) & Brad Morrison (JrDB).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jndia Erbacher from Switzerland is the top qualifier in FIA Top Fuel Dragster with a 4.170-second run at 356 km\/hrs. Jndia, with a straight arrow, started during Q1 but lifted off as she was getting closer to the center line. Susanne Callin is in second place with a 4.416-second run at 315 km\/hr (an improvement from Q1; 4.83 at 254 km\/hr). Ida Zetterstrom is in third place with a 5.301-second run at 214 km\/hr. Only four Entries this year in the Top Fuel category, but unfortunately, Stig Neergaard retired himself from the event. With Stig’s retirement, this category turned into an all-female field!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
