We gratulate Fola Osu for winning the concours.
That was the best AUDI we´d ever seen.
Great job Fola. And thanks for building
our LOLA bodies. They are perfect.
The lights went down in Troisdorf ...
During official training the current gets away
totally.
So the whole OEPS-Circus moves to Swisttal
to start the race there.
So it was “Swisttal for Troisdorf”
A great qualifying by Frank.
