Successful performance for the OPV Šport team at the home race in Lučine

GHD
The 3900-meter-long track from Todraž to Lučin, where the OPV šport club is also based, hosted mountain speed racers last weekend. In the real summer heat and in front of a large number of spectators, four drivers of OPV Sport also took part in the race and successfully represented the club colors. With the Peugeot 208 R2, Rok Turk won a high 5th place in the overall standings for the Slovenian national championship, and was the fastest in Division 2, thus bringing OPV Šport victory in the domestic race. Simon Mlinar, who was the fastest among drivers under 21, also won another Volkswagen Polo. Jure Jereb, who competed in the same car as Simon, won 7th place in Division 1, and in the same division, Matjaž Karner and Zastava Yugo finished 17th.

The Lavanttal Rally will also mark the beginning of the Slovenian National Rally Championship this year. Both we and the spectators are saddened by the fact that only 18 Slovenian crews have registered for it so far, compared to 28. Last year, despite the reduced number of participants in the first of seven rallies this season, we expect this number to increase if not before, at five domestic events. Also this year, the big favorite of the season is Aleks Humar with a Renault Clio R3, who pulled his car well after the winter sleep at the Rebenland rally, which was considered the Mitropa Cup. There was also Asja Zupanc with a Mitsubishi Lancer EVO IX, who will be the only Slovenian participant in the all-wheel drive car at the Lavanttal Rally. Points for the Slovenian championship will be in two weeks in Av
