Thread: Baltic Open 2009, Finland, 20-23.8.2009

  1. #11
    Henrik: If we decide to participate at the Baltic Open (it looks quite good atm) it would be with our 07 or 08 car with mostly old team members. In this case we don't prefer a specific week. I could only think of the fact, that a schedule shortly after FSG will lead to only a few european teams who decide to participate. Having that in mind I would suggest to go for week 34.

    The date is set for week 34. It's official.

    I sent out an invitation to past teams who have entered Baltic Open. If you didn't get it and would like to be on the Baltic Open mailing list, send email to: formula@metropolia-motorsport.fi

    Hello

    Thanks for all the emails sent. We are glad that so many people have already replied with an estimate on how many are interested. Many teams have already decided to come.

    We set the registration to start in June. The registration will be in same fashion as earlier Baltic Opens. Old teams will be prioritized and new teams are allowed to enter as time and space allows.

    This year we started this public discussion half a year earlier than previously, so we will have more time to think this through. The karting tracks schedule was just posted (http://www.helsinginkartingrata.com/tapahtum.htm), and we have 11 hours for 2 days each so track time won't be a problem. We are aiming for enough entries that past baltic open (also includes Dutch open) teams + more could enter. Current situation of teams that show interest looks OK for us.

    The track has a sound meter that logs noise from the track. The sound meter is above the track at 1.8 meters and the maximum noise is 100dB when driving. We will put a brake zone under the sound meter, but does anyone think they will have problems? Our car doesn't have problems, but it might be different for other cars.

    List of interested teams
    Helsinki, Finland
    Tampere, Finland
    Espoo, Finland ?

    KTH, Sweden
    Karlskoga, Sweden

    Aalborg, Denmark

    Delft, Netherlands
    Eindhoven, Netherlands

    Moscow (MADI), Russia

    Braunschweig (Lions), Germany ? (probably not, hopefully yes)
    Darmstadt, Germany
    Freiberg, Germany
    Kiel (Raceyard), Germany

    Joanneum, Austrialia ?

    Teams from our neighbour countries that haven't replied but are most likely interested:
    Chalmers
    Luleå
    Tallinn

    You need a waiting list of teams that can't enter, every competition has one in 2009...


  8. #18
    I'm pretty sure at least Luleå could be put on that waiting list...

    Good to see that there's already over 10 teams most likely coming. And seems like it's going to be quite an international competition.

    KTH- and Helsinki-alumnies tested (may be the last tests before August..)their old cars this past weekend. Some pictures and videos will arrive to the gallery-section soon.
