Salmen takes final Pro Stock Qualifier

Henry Salmen has laid down his intentions for the Pro Stock A-Mains by taking the final qualifier.  The Finn recorded a time of 20 lap in 308.91 to TQ the round from Matthias Lang and will carry the No.3 on his Tamiya in tomorrow’s all important finals.  Salmen has been improving with each outing here in Denmark and pushed harder last time round allowing him to record his best run and the second fastest time of the entire qualifying.

Setting the second fastest time Lang will line up on the No.2 spot of the A final grid behind the dominant Tommy Bergfeldt who sacrificed the final heat to scrub in new tyres for the Finals.  Having run his spare Xray in the last run Lang was pleased with the feeling of the car and is pleased to be lining up second referring to last year’s winner Jimmy Maddison who held the same starting position and beat Top Qualifier Christoph Thiele. Thiele will carry No.5 in this years final.

The only previous DHI Cup winner to line up on this year’s grid will be Bastian Hennig who took the title back in 2007 when he too beat the Top Qualifier.
