Super 2000 in Finland
2005 will be second season for super 2000 cars in finnish championship. Super 2000 and Sport 2000 (Super Production) cars will drive in same starts.
It's possible to homologate cars nationally and also "upgrade" Super Production cars (with racing history in Finland) to Super 2000 cars. So there'll be some pretty unique "Super 2000" cars like Honda Integra, BMW 320i E36 and Renault Megane. Inspired by this grate page (http://www.xs4all.nl/~wjbrand/wtcc.htm) I made my own list http://www.students.tut.fi/~hokkaneo/Super2000Race.html . p.s. If my english is ununderstandable just tell me and I'll fix the page |

The VW Golf of Indrek Sepp looks not bad. How many cars do compete in this championship? |

Megane is just a rumour that somebody is updating his Super Production car. Probably Keijo Ahonen who drove one last year.
I can't say sure how many cars there will be this year, but 2004 total 12 Super2000 and about same number of Super Production cars made atleast one race. Eight S2k and six SP made the whole season. Max number of cars in same race was 21. Now it looks like there will be some more Super2000 cars than last year but less Super Production. |

Why do they only do 6 laps? The race length is less then 9 minutes.

Yep. Ahvenisto really is awesome.
I personally don't like those short races and I don't know why race organiser copied it from STCC. We should have let Swedes test it first and take it if it's good |

4th round was Vauhtiajot Race & Rock Festival in Seinäjoki 23.-24.7.
Race format was qual+2*race. There were two new drivers in the grid. 2004 champion Olli Haapalainen in the 2nd LMS Audi A4 (different driver in every round this far!) and local driver Timo Ylihakola in Jani Vuorinen's last years VW Golf. Grid for the first race was a bit weird because it started to rain when only some of the drivers had made a flying lap. Pasi Lähteenmäki took the pole position. Race 1 was red flagged after 6 laps because Janel Nurmien (Audi) and Ari Laivola (SEAT) crashed. Nurminen was disqualified. Lähteenmäki won the restart. Kari Grönthal (BMW) was 2nd and Olli Haapalainen 3rd. Race 2: 1. Grönthal, 2. Kari Irri (Nissan Primera), 3. Jari Kämäräinen (BMW). Points after 4/6 (unofficial): Code:
1. Pasi Lähteenmäki Honda Civic 131 2. Janel Nurminen Audi A4 96 3. Kari Grönthal BMW 320i 88 4. Ari Laivola Seat Toledo 71 5. Aivis Ohtla EST Honda Accord 64 6. Jukka Ylitalo Bmw 320i 61 7. Keijo Ahonen Renault Megane 58 8. Kari Irri Nissan Primera 48 9. Jari Kämäräinen BMW 320i 39 10. Indrek Sepp EST Audi A4 34 11. Tero Tupala Honda Integra 21 12. Anssi Kela Audi A4 20 * Olli Haapalainen Audi A4 * Markku Hitamäki Audi A4 * Martin Merisaar EST Honda Civic * Meelis Laido EST Honda Civic * Janek Merisaar EST Honda Integra Race results (pdf) Pictures (Racing Images) Pictures (Rallikuvat.net) |
