Drag Racing Europe AB, – “DRE”, and FIM Europe have signed an agreement for the promotion of the 2022 FIM Europe Drag Bike European Championship. The agreement is the result of discussions between FIM Europe and the DRE management group formed by Keith Bartlett, Michael Gullqvist and Roger Lyrén. The intention is to run FIM Europe Drag Bike European Championship in a combined calendar with the FIA European Drag Racing Championship for cars.

We were very sorry to hear of the serious injuries of Hans-Olav Olstad after a bad high-speed accident after an engine explosion at Gardermoen Raceway last weekend. The Norwegian Super Twin racer was flown to the hospital with injuries to his face, chest and a lung.

The weather was not with the racers of the EDRS Pro Nordic Motorcycle Championship at Tierp Arena on Sunday. With only one round of eliminations in Super Twin Motorcycle and Super Street Bike completed, and Pro Stock Motorcycle in the line-up, it started to rain. With more rain to come in the next couple of hours, the race director was left no other choice than to cancel the remainder of the Summit Racing Scandinavian Nationals, the final round of the EDRS Pro Nordic Motorcycle Championship.
