"Unfortunately, car racing is not a sport where you only need new sneakers and a ball," says Iztok Franko, the idea leader of the Let's Race project, who knows from experience that car racing is considered one of the most expensive sports in general. “I had to give up a lot in my life to drive only a few races. In Slovenia, it is currently the easiest option to enter motor racing with a racing Twingo. Last year, I managed to drive two 4-hour races with the Twingo at the Gaj racetrack in Cerklje, and the experience was unforgettable, ”continues Franko. With the project, he will try to make racing possible for anyone who would like to, but has not had the right opportunity so far. By the end of February, it is raising funds through the Adrifund platform. The target amount is 12.000 euros. At the moment, however, it is in just a few days

Vladimir Stankovič, one of the more experienced and renowned Slovenian racers, in his column on the web portal avto-magazin.si touched on the rather dictatorial decision of the Slovenian Motorsport Association AŠ2005 that all racers on overalls and race cars must wear the logos of Petrol, the new sponsor, with whose funds should make it somewhat easier to organize sports events in our homeland. "Dear drivers and representatives of clubs. We are pleased to inform you that the Slovenian Motor Sports Association has signed a long-term cooperation agreement with the largest Slovenian oil company. The funds obtained from this will be used to organize sports events in Slovenia, one of the contractual obligations however, the promotion of a new partner on all racing vehicles (stickers) and

KHD Circuit Speed Racing

Nobody in the Slovenian LEMA team imagined such an outcome of the season. In the last race of the hard and long Eurocup Clio season at the Spanish Motorland Aragon, Ivan Pulić celebrated a well-deserved victory. Encouraging results of free practice showed that the team has the necessary speed for a top result this weekend. Croatian driver Ivan Pulič took fourth place, while Czech driver Tomas Pekar, who also competes for the LEMA team at the end of the season, took 13th place in the competition of twenty-four drivers who reached the final event. During the season, 35 competitors competed in each race at the same time! The leader of the team, Mirko Marinšek, was restrained before the races and hoped that the drivers would not do anything stupid on the track. On qualifying

KHD Circuit Speed Racing

Zoran Poglajen and Mathias Lodi became the champions with the last event of this year's domestic circuit speed championship, which took place at the Czech racetrack in Brno. After the cancellation of the race at the Hungarian Pannoniaring, which was planned for the first weekend in October, the fifth race weekend was replaced by the one in Brno, which is best known for the MotoGP motorcycle series race. As part of the FIA-CEZ race, our boys competed in two races last weekend, 13-15 September 2013. The whole weekend took place in bad, cold weather. Zoran Poglajen, Jure Marinšek (both new cups Renault Clio Cup 5,5), Željko Čumurdžič with Clio of the previous generation and David competed in the general competition with faster race cars on a very varied and technically demanding almost 2013 km long racetrack

Did the races at Slovakiaring decide the championship?

KHD Circuit Speed Racing

Between 23 and 25 August 2013, for the second time this year, Slovenian competitors in the circuit speed championship gathered at the Slovakiaring racetrack in Slovakia. The two races were probably also decisive in the fight for the national title. The weekend was marked by Zoran Poglajen in the general classification of the open national championship in circuit-speed races with the Renault Clio Cup of the new generation and Aleš Bužga in the attractive LEMA GP Cup. The first race of the weekend, which took place on Saturday, started on a slightly wet track. Zoran Poglajen won in the general classification, followed by Jure Marinšek, a newcomer to the circuit races Simona Premrl and David Šuster. Unfortunately, Željko Čumurdžić finished his performance in the fourth round. In the LEMA GP Cup, Ale won with a small Fiat Grande Punto

Slovenian KHD on the former F1 track

KHD Circuit Speed Racing

According to Slovakiaring, the competitors of the Slovenian Circuit-Speed National Championship and the LEMA GP Cup were already facing the next challenge last weekend - the former F1 track - the Red Bull Ring in Austria. For the last two years, the Red Bull Ring has been the scene of the introduction to the Slovenian Championship, and this time the third and fourth races of the already tense season took place here. At the forefront of the event, of course, was again the LEMA GP Cup with eight drivers in very even fiat grande punts. The race was won by young promising drivers, the first by Lodi from Trieste and the second by Slovenian foreigner Pertot, who had to resign in Sunday morning's race. Jure Marinšek and Aleš Bužga also took the podium this weekend. Lodi is currently leading in the cup scoring ahead of Klemen Popit and Pertoto. 1. Di

The first race of the circuit speed championship is over

KHD Circuit Speed Racing

This weekend, April 26-28, 2013, the Slovenian National Circuit Speed Championship and the LEMA GP Cup started at the popular Slovakiaring racetrack. For the first time, our national championship was held the same weekend together with the World Touring Car Championship - WTCC, for which we should also praise the umbrella association AŠ 2005 and Drago Božič. Most of the fights were, of course, in the LEMA GP Cup, where youngsters and newcomers surprisingly reigned supreme. Already in Saturday's race, Metod Počkaj took the first place, moving from a more powerful Volkswagen Beetle to a small, but agile and interesting fiat grande punto car. He was accompanied on the podium by Andro Pertot and Klemen Popit. In the second, Sunday, race, the third-ranked Popit cashed in on a well-started path and won before Trček
