Swatch Snow Mobile 2007

Thursday, Dec 13, 2007 - At 11am we met at the hotel Gollinger Hof. A snowplow took us into the mountains where we had a typical Austrian lunch. After lunch the 16 winners of the Swatch the Club contest were ready to race for the three places in the Swatch the Club Snow Mobile Race Team. A few rounds for practise and then one round under timing was enough to find the eight fastest drivers. They had to compete against each other, and the final four drivers had again one round under timing. The 3 fastest drivers made it into the Swatch the Club Snow Mobile Race Team.
The evening was party time. The Welcome Party at the Goaßstall started at 8pm. Team Leaders, some VIPs and celebraties showed up to see the lucky draw of the starting numbers of the Snowmobile Teams. Swatch the Club had number 18. The rest of the night was party with Mat Schuh (popular Austrian entertainer).
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Friday, Dec 14, 2007 - The Swatch the Club Snow Mobile Race Team got their first racing experience on the race track during the free training in the afternoon. During the training the Swatch Get Hot Go Go dancers were a nice attraction next to the race track. They danced in bikinis, but didn't get cold because they danced in a huge snow globe (linked to the Swatch Christmas theme 2007). Very nice eyecatcher :)
At 6 pm the Qualifying started. Each team had to make one fast round in order to get a good starting position for the race.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Saturday, Dec 15, 2007 - At 2.30pm, right before the First Heat, all Snow Mobile Teams were presented to the audience. During the First Heat the Swatch Snow Mobile Team made the last place because of a technical problem. The Swatch the Club Team made 6th place and was not directly qualified for the Big Final (only the five best teams were qualified directly) but had a second chance to qualify in the Small Final. Of course that chance was used and the Swatch the Club Snow Mobile Team made it into the Big Final which took place at 9pm. Unfortunately in the end our team did not win but still made a great 4th place.
