Autoslalom on Ljubečna impressed drivers and visitors

Author of the article: , published September 14, 2015.

76 competitors meandered between the cones in the autoslalom competition at the Ljubečna polygon. A beautiful Sunday also attracted spectators who enjoyed the sight of the attractive rides. The race allowed drivers with a valid driver’s license and a serviceable vehicle to safely release their adrenaline. As this was the 10th car slalom prepared by the members of the AMD Šempeter association, several prizes were prepared for both drivers and visitors. One of the visitors was able to ride with an attractive fan and driver Jan Jurška on the track for competitors and thus also experienced a ride in autoslalom.

Drivers competed in six categories. The organizers ranked them in the first four according to the engine capacity of their vehicle, and women and older drivers - legends - also had their own category. The most skilful driver on the track was also the Austrian driver Patrick Mayer this year, Matthias Auinger took second place in the overall standings, and Dragan Gajič came third.

The fact that the Austrians won in all categories did not surprise the representative of the organizers, Nejc Romih from AMD Šempeter, as this auto-moto sport is very developed among the neighbors. "You can also see the difference in the quality of vehicles, and financial capabilities can be a big obstacle in this sport," he said.
