An old A10 is always good to win a championship *smile*
Last weekend was the final race this year at Hockenheim and so the last chance to get points for the DHM Championship.
The race at Schotten was a little unlucky by a brocken acceleratorcable in the first run and a strange noise from the new engine in second run. Result was 10th and 3rd place so I collected 16 points and was second place in championship, 11 points behind the leader.
For the last event I fit in my old engine, still running since 3 years without major probs.
Fryday was for praktice, Saturday and Sunday were races.
We do not realy races there are Regularity Runs.
I was row 4 place 12 in the grid with 63 competitors.
Always giving full throttle by dry conditions, the bike and me was a wining unit at the saturday event.
Over night the weather changes and the sunday run was a wet race with realy bad conditions with oily spots at the track.
But the fortune was with me and I get a result in both races I never expected.
At two races with 6 timed laps and a little more than 22km I missed my reverece times only 8.5 hundred seconds.

Two first places are 50 points, and so I won the DHM Championship in klass W.
Last year I was second place and in 2014 first.

lucky Klaus
