NItro Nationals 2010 is over for this time and a lots of bad and good things did happen in Finland. We had five classes represented:Pro Mod, Super Comp, Stock/Super Stock and Super Gas Bike.

In Pro Mod Mikael Gullkvist took the grand slam of the weekend. With his 5.91/395 km/h he is now the fastest Pro Mod driver in Europe. He also got the second membership in the Pro Mod 5 Sec Club from the Green Goblin Team. Mikael tog the win in Pro Mod and Linberg Br as RU. They was very satisfied with that. One win and one RU so far this season. Very respecful, nice and funny young guys Pro Mod class got this year. Pro Mods Andy Robinson got on fire and the car was totaly burned out. But Andy came out without any injury. - I got a spare body at home and the chassi seams to be alright. The electic system is al melted down so thats the bigest problem, but I think we´ll be on wheels again untill Hockenheim, but at least to the Finals, was the comment after an owerlook of the problems, was the coment from Andy.  A bad Top Fuel insident happend on friday vs Neergard and Risto Putiainen where the dragsters hooked togheter and tumbled around. But luckely both drivers could walk by the spectators to show that they was just fine. On saturday they where on track again with rebuilted cars. And Risto ended up as RU this weekend. A thrill!

Competitions Martin Lundkvist in he´s realy nice yellow picup did a excellent weekend and took the win n the finla at (8.10) 839/150 as Jani Lindvall did´nt come of the starting line. In Super Comp Joonas Pesonen took the win at 8.95/248 as Meri-Tuuli Sassi was to hot at the pedal and redlighted. Stock/Super Stocks Hannu Palasmaa did a nice wheelie and 10.62/198 beat Jarmo Markkanens 10.90/193. Super Gas Bikes Kristo Korpela did a nice run vs Manu Alarto. With just 7/10 of a sec from braking out he took the win.
