Kobbevik doubles Norwegian Indoor Offroad Nats

The Norwegian EP Offroad Nationals were held this past weekend at the KayArena carpet track in Siggerud. The 2wd portion was run with four qualifiers and Daniel Kobbevik TQ’d all four with his Sunpadow/Hobbywing powered Schumacher LD2. Helge Johannesen and Eirik Andressen complete the top three on the grid. Daniel won A1 easily with Eirik Andreassen with his Yokomo second and Alexander Gjemble with his Schumacher third. In A2 Daniel had huge lead, but 1:45 before the finish, the right front wheel came off, and at same time earlier in the final Alexander and Eirik had a hard wheel to wheel battle and they came into each other, meaning they both missed the loop, so they lost one lap. That left them fighting for second and third. And with Daniel out of race as well, it was a total shake up with the ranking after A2. It ended with Vincent Rüger in front of Peter Strein and Helge Johannesen and so A3 was going to be exciting. A3 started, and Daniel went away right away leaving behind the fight for second and third was strong. It ended it was Eirik in front of Alexander, but with his win in A2, Rüger took the final overall podium spot.
