Ein weiteres Jahr und eine weitere isländische Savage Hill Climb Veranstaltung! Selbst der Ausbruch des Eyjafjallajoekull Vulkans konnte diese Veranstaltung nicht stoppen. Der isländische HPI/HB Vertreiber trug wie geplant das jährliche Savage Hill Climb Event aus!
It was an extremely close event, with many of the competitors very even and the battling extra-tough! First place was hill climb regular Loftur Matthiasson with his modified Savage monster truck, taking the top spot by 60 points over second place Vidar Thor Vidarsson! Third place was Runar Olafsson, just missing out on the tie-break with Vidar. Congratulations to Loftur, and thanks to everyone who participated! HPI Europe provided prizes for the top 3 racers!
