Third KINI FULLGAS Day celebrates motor sports in style
Heinz
Kinigadner again expressed his passion for the entire spectrum
of motor sports when he hosted the third annual KINI FULLGAS
DAY when the tiny town of Uderns in the Austrian Zillertal
was transformed into a veritable Mecca for motor sports aficionado
Kinigadner, one of the great exponents of offroad motorcycling
offered fans of motorized speed and style the opportunity
to rub shoulders with a whole crowd of motor sports greats
and to get up close and personal with the machines of their
dreams. Whether it was gliding behind the wheel of the already
iconic KTM X-Bow roadster, gasping at the Flying Bulls air
show or taking in the dazzling array of machinery and the
men who make it perform, the third FULLGAS DAY was action
packed for all who attended.
Motorized magic
As well as the KTM X-Bow, Formula 1 machines, DTM autos, Enduro
bikes, motocross machines, MAN Trucks and much more, the new,
much acclaimed KTM 1190 RC8 was on display to thrill those
attending.
Holding out for a hero
Spanish rally specialist Marc Coma was on hand just days after
the conclusion of the inaugural Dakar Series Rally through
Hungary and Romania. Motocross greats past and present were
there in the form of KTMs own Pit Beirer and Red Bull KTM
factory team rider Tommy Searle next to famous base jumper
Felix Baumgartner and the Austrian skiing hero Matthias Lanzinger.
Adrenalin rush
Formula 1 driver and youngster Sebastian Vettel from Germany
was on hand to discuss the current season and as well as the
nail-biting air show, adrenalin levels were raised by the
FMX Freestyle Show by the KTM factory riders and a stunt show
by stunt master Chris Pfeiffer of Germany.
The latest edition of the spectacular event in the homeland
of the Kinigadner family was also visited again by Red Bull
founder Dietrich Mateschitz and Dr. Rudi Knünz, Board
of the KTM Power Sports AG.
All proceeds from FULLGAS including a KTM lottery made 750
price winners a big smile, went to the Wings for Life Foundation
which supports ground breaking, international research into
finding a cure for spinal cord injury.
