Race report by Markus Hellquist
The third round of the South Swedish Indoor Series was this time combined with the Middle Swedish Electric Series. It was hosted by Miracl at their great facilities just outside of the small Swedish city Atvidaberg. The track is put together on a nice but older type of ETS Carpet with a darker gray colour, instead of the more recent black one. The traction started out low during the Friday free practice, but soon enough went up to a fair amount of traction. And continued to be alright, but not superhigh for the rest of the race during Saturday.

I (Markus Hellquist) drove 1:10th modified and I had a great race. The other drivers couldn’t put any pressure on me, and I managed to win all rounds of practice, qualification and finals. Daniel Carlsson locked down second place and Andreas Johansson secured the 3rd spot.

I changed a few things on the car during the race to adjust the car for the lower grip. I went from a 10k diff to a 7k. I changed from the nut only in the motor mount, to the 2 screws behind to get some more traction in the car. At first, I switched to 2.6 springs all around, but when traction came up I went back to 2.7.

In F1 Fredrik von Elling first won the qualifying, where the best round out of three was counted. Then he proceeded to win all the finals with ease.
