Race #5 in the 2022 Euroserie supertwin top gas.
Nitrolympix, Hockenheim, 26-28 august.

There were five top gas racers on the entree list, Martin Buehler and Olaf Menzie from Switzerland, and Carsten Hormann, Gerd Caspari and Joerg Lymant from Germany.
A 4-field drag race was planned for sunday. The weather conditions were tropical.

Gerd Caspari had bought Serge Pinet's Buell and had sold his old bike to Carsten Hormann. The first qualification round was held on Friday morning. Gerd and Carsten were first in line. Hormann did 8.8 and Caspari 8.0 seconds.

Martin Buehler's bike spit out some debree when he left the start line, and did a poor 10.4.

Olaf Menzi was in the other lane, and his bike stopped shortly after the start.

Then Joerg Lymant did 7.5.

Martin Buehler and his helper Bend Foit had to wrench for the rest of the day, the other four racers went to the start line again on friday afternoon.

Hormann and Caspari could not improve their times, Lymant did another 7.5, slightly quicker then his first run.

Olaf Menzie had not been able to solve his problem. His bike stopped again, shortly after the start. Menzie did not come out on saturday for round #3. Martin Buehler had repaired his bike and did a nice 8.3.

Caspari left the start line way too early and did not set a time. Hormann and Lymant did not improve.

Round #4: Carten Hormann did set his best time so far, 8.76.

In the other lane Gerd Caspari improved to 7.51 and became the top qualifier for about five minutes. Last chance to qualify for Olaf Menzie, but again the same problem. And Martin Buehler was not able to reach the finish line. Then Joerg Lymant set things straight with 7.38.

Carsten Hormann did 8.78 in the semi finals. But he was sent home by Joeg Lymant, who sharpened the topgas class record to 7.36. Then Gerd Caspari caused an upset doing 7.27 and 298 KmH.

Martin Buehler disappointed with 10.2 seconds.

The final race could have been exciting, but Gerd Caspari's bike stopped right after the start, while Lymant did 7.4 and won the race.

Below are Gerd, Joerg and Carsten.

Joerg Lymant also secured the 2022 Euroserie championship at Hockenheim.

Martin Buehler and Jan Malmberg need to decide at Mosten who will become the runner up.
Gerd Caspari became Europe's quickest topgas biker ever, at the the semi finals at the NOX, but his bike suffered major damage.

Race #6 in the 2022 Euroserie supertwin top gas: Mosten Race Day at the Bode Engvej in Denmark. The last race of the serie.

There were 13 topgassers on the entree list, but not all of them showed up. Still it was the biggest field of the season. Nice and sunny weather and a great atmosphere. Like always, the 1/8 mile "Custom Cycle Raceway" was in excellent condition.

Two qualification rounds were held on friday, and the best eight would advance to the eliminations on saturday.

Olaf Menzie was the first topgasser on the track.

But his bike did not perform the way it should be.

Neither did Martin Buehler's bike.

6.12 second for Horst Petersen on the V-rod Destroyer.

Cord Albers on an NCCR-Buell.

Malte Foit's engine is similar to the one in in Albers's bike.

And Malte was slightly quicker then Cord in the first round.

A nice 60 foot time for Jan Malmberg, but no more power after that. The problem seems to be a damaged piston, just like at Mantorp, earlier this season.

Another nice pass by a V-rod Destroyer, John Hansen was not as quick as Petersen, but good for the third place that morning.

Carsten "Mecky" Hormann was at the podium at Hockenheim, and became the quickest after round one in Mosten.

Martin Buehler improved in the second round and went from the bump spot to place #5 in the list.

Malte Fiot also did better in that round.

A nice launch for Cord Albers in the second round, but his bike broke down shortly after that, and the race was over for him.

Both Petersen and Hansen did better in this round, and Hansen managed to stay ahead of Menzi and Buehler.

Hormann did 5.44, and dropped to #2 on the list.

Anders Jensen came out for the first time.

But it is not clear what time he did. Anders was also coaching his crew members that were successful in other classes.

Olaf Menzi was able to improved his time, but was passed by Martin Buehler in the ranking.

And by Joerg Lymant, who became the top qualifier.

On saturday morning, the eight quickest were to battle it out, but only five came to the start for the first round, de four quickest would advance.

Petersen opened with a poor 6.9. Malte Foit was next, he should be able to beat that time, but he could not.

Consistent runs for Hormann and Lymant, and Martin Buehler also advanced to the semi finals, where Petersen produced his best run of the weekend.

Mecky Hormann had a bit of a wild ride but managed to go quicker then Petersen.

Martin Buehler did not come out, and Joerg Lymant produced another 4.7.

The seat of Hormann's bike was damaged beyond quick repair, so he did not race the final round. So Joerg Lymant could take it easy, he used 4.9 seconds for his last run at Mosten.

Below is the podium of Mosten, Mecky Hormann on the left, Hort Petersen on the right side, and Joerg Lymant, the 2022 champion, in the middle.

Jan Malmberg is the 2022 runner up, Martin Buehler was not able to pass him during the last race, Martin became the #3.
