Race report from Hökensås and the first official VGC Cup race.
Never been on this track before so practice and time qualifying were spent learning lines and track layout.
Both heats were terrible from a start perspective, I need to practice and learn not to hesitate, more gas for a longer time basically 😅
Anyways!
38 racers lined up for C Finals.
Heat 1: track was prepped to some extent and lines were cleared so didn't get a good feel, left first corner in P35, managed to climb to P28, improved on qualifying times quite alot and I'm pleased with the effort 👌
Heat 2: First corner was prepped but rest of the track were left as is.
Again another horrible start and into a tight first corner were people lined up to get through, left first corner in P37, found some great flow though and picked up alot of speed, finished the race in P23.
Summary: extremely happy with the race at hökensås, track was crazy rough and the deep beach look-a-like sand was showing no remorse, but left the day as an improved rider with new experiences.
Next up, Hard packed Borås FMCK!
