The first race after the battery ban was in Tromsø, a city 1700km north of Oslo. It was a 1h40min whit plane up to the cold north where it was snow.

 

 

 When arriving in Tromsø the local racers where at the airport to pick us up and drive us to the track. That was a nice guest from the club. Well at the track we had some time to practice for the qualifying started. The track is small and technical but a nice layout. The big question was the charge time since we are only aloud to charge with 1C (4,2 amp) so for a 4200 battery pack it takes about 1hr+ to charge.

 

 

 

The practice went well for most of the drivers, despite a battery that exploded in a car after a major crash. After the practice was over Adrian Berntsen (Xray) was the fastest and leaving the rest of us racers behind on the track.

 

There was 2 qualifying heats on Saturday and 1 on Sunday, with finals on Sunday. After the qualifying on Saturday Adrian Berntsen (Xray) was on pole followed by Goran Langsholt (Serpent) and John Lara (Associated) on 3rd.

 

In 19 stock Marcus Alvestad (Kysoho) was on a mission, and dominated the qualifying with fine and fast driving, even with some small electric problems but still was the man on over night pole

 

 

After ended qualifying this was the results
