\"\"<\/a>The annual MC M\u00e4ssan (MC Show) at the Swedish Exhibition and Congress Centre in in Gothenburg attracted some 40\u00a0000 visitors in the last weekend of January.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

A fantastic weekend for bikers, many new bike models and accessories was displayed. Speedgroup joined the exhibitors of course.<\/p>\n

Speedgroup was on site to market our two series, Summit Racing EDRS Series<\/strong> and EDRS Pro<\/strong>. But also, to give general information about all our events and invite people to come and visit us at one (or more) of them when season starts. Closest, both in distance and time, is the first race in the Summit Racing EDRS Series is to be held in V\u00e5rg\u00e5rda. Only 45 minutes\u2019 drive north of Gothenburg.

Mikael Alfredsson<\/strong>, representing Speedgroup and responsible for our booth, worked hard to market the fastest motorsport in the world during the expo.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s been hectic from day one at this place\u201d, Mikael says. \u201cGreat to be able to be here, it\u2019s a good opportunity to show our services and products and to inform people that maybe has no relation and not so much knowledge about dragracing today. We want to meet with people on all kind of forums, that\u2019s why we are involved where we can and try to encourage more and more people to come to our events\u201d.<\/p>\n

Robert Nilsson<\/strong> brought his Super Street Bike<\/em><\/strong> and it was like a magnet and draw a lot of people to the booth, people that wanted to know more about the bike and the class he\u2019s competing in. Fredrik Westberg<\/strong> and G\u00f6ran Molin<\/strong> gave information about the club SHRA Bor\u00e5s<\/strong> and the events that will be arranged at V\u00e5rg\u00e5rda Raceway<\/strong> 2018. On Saturday also J\u00f6rgen Hult<\/strong> from the Safety Group<\/strong> joined. He was talking about the very high safety requirements in all dragracing. Daniel Plakidis<\/strong>, from VP Racing Fuels<\/strong>, joined to market VP Racing Fuels and all products they can offer.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve made a lot of new contacts in Gothenburg, and in a few weeks we\u2019re going to Norrk\u00f6ping for next event, \u201c\u00c5by Motormarknad\u201d and continue our mission, Mikael says. After that we will continue to V\u00e5rg\u00e5rda for offering marketing opportunities for local business people\u201d.
