Watt will be the replacement. Re-run from the gate, but it was only 15 metres from first to last. Heat 2 [66.4]: Sebastian Ulamek, Krzysztof Buczkowski, Matej Zagar, Victor Golubovski Zagar does a great job chasing Ulamek, but almost lost his second place to Buczkowski. Golubovski never in the race. Heat 3 [69.6]: Bjarne Pedersen, Grzegorz Walasek, Hans Andersen, Dave Watt (Joonas Kylmäkorpi T/T, David Ruud FN) Kylmäkorpi exluded for touch/tape. Ruud will be the replacement. First bend bunching as Ruud and Pedersen hits the deck. All 4 back. However, Ruud is injured and must be checked over by the medical staff. Ruud will be replaced by Watt. Close enough, but no passes. Heat 4 [64.9]: Antonio Lindbäck, Martin Vaculik, Krzysztof Kasprzak, Leon Madsen Vaculik gates, but Lindbäck passes him on bend three of the opening lap, to win by a mile. The other stays on a line, without much drama. Heat 5 [65.9]: Krzysztof Kasprzak, Bjarne Pedersen, Jesper B Monberg, Sebastian Ulamek Pedersen passes Monberg for second, but can´t pass Kasprzak. Monberg got some attention from Ulamek, but was able to hold on. Heat 6 [66.1]: Antonio Lindbäck, Grzegorz Walasek, Matej Zagar, Simon Gustafsson Lindbäck and Walasek had a good fight for a lap, but the Swedish GP rider looks quick today and won easily. Zagar comfortable in third, but Gustafsson never close to a point. Heat 7 [66.0]: Piotr Protasiewicz, Krzysztof Buczkowski, Joonas Kylmäkorpi, Dave Watt (Martin Vaculik T/T) Kylmäkorpi enters the first bend first, but tries the outside and got passed by both Poles. Kylmäkorpi then gets overexcited and tries too hard and too soon, and lost ground instead of waiting for the right opportunity. Heat 8 [66.6]: Peter Ljung, Leon Madsen, Hans Andersen, Victor Golubovski Madsen passed Andersen and then was all over Ljung who had to ride quite defensive to keep the lead. Golubovski was without a chance. Heat 9 [65.8]: Joonas Kylmäkorpi, Matej Zagar, Leon Madsen, Jesper B Monberg Kylmäkorpi makes a good first/second turn and then wins by 40 metres! Madsen chased Zagar, without luck. Heat 10 [66.2]: Sebastian Ulamek, Martin Vaculik, Hans Andersen, Simon Gustafsson From the gate. Heat 11 [66.0]: Antonio Lindbäck, Bjarne Pedersen, Piotr Protasiewicz, Victor Golubovski Lindbäck is the quickest one here tonight. Pedersen tries to follow him, but isn´t really close. Protasiewicz comfortable in third, and Golubovski dead last again. Heat 12 [67.0]: Peter Ljung, Krzysztof Kasprzak, Grzegorz Walasek, Krzysztof Buczkowski WOW! Walasek pass Kasprzak for first, Ljung turns to the inside and goes to the lead and Walasek is suddenly in fourth! Walasek then re-gain third ahead of Buczkowski in an entertaining heat. Amazing heat with plenty of passes. Not that many good heats so far, but his was exceptional! Heat 13 [67.1]: Krzysztof Buczkowski, Dave Watt, Hans Andersen, Jesper B Monberg (Antonio Lindbäck T/T) Lindbäck exluded for touch/tape. Watt replaces. Buczkowski wins fairly comfortable, but Watt gets second place by passing Andersen. Heat 14 [67.1]: Simon Gustafsson, Krzysztof Kasprzak, Joonas Kylmäkorpi, Victor Golubovski ( F ) Gustafsson springs a surprise by an easy win. Kasprzak and Kylmäkorpi is third and fourth at first, but Kasprzak pass Golubovski who then falls while third on the final lap. Kylmäkorpi is forced to lay down to avoid a big collision with the Russian, and is awarded a point after finish. Heat 15 [66.7]: Leon Madsen, Piotr Protasiewicz, Grzegorz Walasek, Sebastian Ulamek Madsen won against the three Poles, without problem. Ulamek had second place initially, but was passed by both Protasiewicz and Walasek. In the end, it was big distances between all riders. Heat 16 [66.8]: Martin Vaculik, Bjarne Pedersen, Matej Zagar, Peter Ljung Vaculik makes a good effort as he goes from third to first. Ljung has a tough first opening bends but remains in last position despite a good chase. Heat 17 [67.0]: Martin Vaculik, Jesper B Monberg, Victor Golubovski, Grzegorz Walasek Vaculik from the gate. Tougher for the remaining places where Walasek temporarily takes third from Monberg, only to lose it straight away. Instead, Monberg grabs two points by passing Golubovski. Heat 18 [67.1]: Bjarne Pedersen, Leon Madsen, Simon Gustafsson, Krzysztof Buczkowski Pedersen had an awful gate, but the remaining rider messed up for each other on the opening bends so Pedersen could sneak through for the lead. Madsen chased Pedersen, but had to settle for two points. Heat 19 [67.4]: Piotr Protasiewicz, Krzysztof Kasprzak, Hans Andersen, Matej Zagar ( R ) Kasprzak had a great gate from white, but Protasiewicz passed him after a lap. The heat had two great fights, and Andersen took the final point as Zagar gave up while fourth on the last lap. Heat 20 [67.3]: Antonio Lindbäck, Peter Ljung, Joonas Kylmäkorpi, Sebastian Ulamek Lindbäck gated, and won easily. Ljung was chased hard by Kylmäkorpi but managed to hold on, while a inside line riding Ulamek got last. Heat 21 [66.5]: Antonio Lindbäck, Bjarne Pedersen From the gate. Congratulations to Lindbäck, Pedersen and Protasiewicz for taking the three places to next season´s Grand Prix! Thank you and good evening from Vetlanda!

f-s-p 832 Posted August 20, 2011 Congratulations to Henri Ahlbom (Elit Vetlandas 80cc rider, scored 14 points for his team earlier today) who won the pot in the predictions game I kept, 15 participants. Should make him able to buy a back tyre or two... Thought it was an excellent meeting, a real rollercoaster with things going not my way and in cases not in anyones way... Shame with Joonas, damn!
