Round 2 BE Drift Series/ KOE.



Two days of exitement on a very hard track. 64 drifters from France, Germany, Switzerland, Poland, Netherlands, Belgium, Finland and Sweden. I was too busy to practice on Saturday and too busy on Sunday as well. At the end of the qualification 2 quick runs with a 7th place overall, I was happy with my qualification for Best of 16. In front of a big crowd I had to battle the winner of round 1 Kees Kok and with some luck I won. We all need some luck now and then!?

In the 1/4 finals I had to battle my brother in law Mike Brown. After 2 runs the judges decided for a re-run. We were waiting in the pitlane and then the decision came: I lost and I think it was deserved.

At the end it was Mike and Remmo Niezen in the Big Final, which Remmo won very close.
It was a great weekend, lot's of fun, barbeques, beer etc etc. and we made a lot of new drifting fans too!!.
