Swedish On-road Nationals 2013 – Report
The 2013 Swedish On-road Nationals was held at the relatively newly built facility of the Lidköping RCK, located towards the South-Western part of Sweden. The track is a fairly big one, with both sweeping and technical parts. The event was unfortunately struck by bad weather, with rain and very cold conditions, already from the start on Friday. The entry count reached 60, divided on three classes: 1/10 nitro on-road, 1/8 on-road, and 1/10 electric touring cars. In the 1/8 category, the race saw a late entry of the star of this year’s Swedish Cup in the 1/10 class, Markus Hellquist. In a controlled and blistering fast performance, he managed to snatch the overall win in front of many experienced 1/8 drivers. He came in in front of Mikael Fransson and Patrick Sahlin.
