The registration page seems to be gone, which is ok. But what about a list of who actually registered to race?

Robert Gaisek · Post by **Robert Gaisek** » Mon Jun 02, 2008 4:54 pm

We will investigate........

Robert Gaisek · Post by **Robert Gaisek** » Mon Jun 02, 2008 6:06 pm

The page will be updated shortly.
This is what it says right now.....
The races are going to be held in beautiful Slottsskogen.
We have 34 pros, 49 amateurs, 15 women, and 10 juniors ready to battle for top honors. We will send out more information about the times, races , training etc.. shortly. Plus put up new videos from the racetrack, and how the hills look like.

Starsky "Freestyle" Kleinhans from Berlin has finished his wintersleep, called me this morning and asked me if there is any chance to get him on the starting list ??? I mean he just missed it and he is not checking ss.com and all the other sites constantly cause of missing internet connection. I said I can post it here and we will see what happens. He wanted to come in one car together with Kongo Boehmfeld.

You can get in contact with him under rollingfour@gmx.de or www.rollingfour.de or just let me know how you guys decided .....

cheers from berlin

Sorry I'm late but I didn't know 1 june limit ( this is the first time 2 month before the competition) I would like to sign up but maybe it's not more possible. How can I do?

Ulf Haag · Post by **Ulf Haag** » Wed Jun 04, 2008 10:45 pm

Luca,

Don't worry, I signed up, but will not race, so you can take my place. Well, of course you have to race in my name... The deal is simple: You get the trophies/prize money, I get to keep the points. OK?

See you in Gothenburg!

Luca Giammarco · Post by **Luca Giammarco** » Thu Jun 05, 2008 10:28 pm

Ok no problem Jani! but perhaps now it would be better for you to replace from dom or ramon (the men to beat). You know I begin to feel my age and it's more and more difficult..

Jani Soderhall · Post by **Jani Soderhall** » Fri Jun 06, 2008 8:33 am

Luca,

Nevertheless YOU are the legend and the one everyone wants to beat!

Looking forward to see you in Gothenburg.

Sorry my ignorance, i'm new with this level of racing, but why sign up ends (officially) so early, bout 2 months before race?

Ulf Haag · Post by **Ulf Haag** » Sun Jun 08, 2008 11:44 pm

Hi Sj,

The reasons why we close down the "sign up" early are...

This is a huge set up and a fairly large administrative task, we all do this on our spare time.
You know in between family, work, training and allmost all swedes are up for summer vacation in July and so are we (and our wifes).

We don't want to end up in panic because racers are slow with the sign up and waits to the last minute. (we do tolerate late sign ups to a certain degree).
We want to have time to plan the whole event, start times, side shows, parties, music etc.etc.

Most of all we want to make this a great event and to do that we have to follow the "Master Plan"
