German mountain championships
In 2011 and 2012 the Lightweight Uphill was held as the German Mountain Championships of the BDR . For the first time , an individual time trial was carried out as a qualification using the Gundersen method, followed by a pursuit. Around a third of the drivers from the qualification run started with the intervals between this run and the result run.
License race
The event includes the following categories according to BDR regulations 3.7 / 8/9/10/11/12/13/14/15/16/17/18/19/20/22/23/24/25.
Hobby races
Around 650 hobby starters of all classes start as part of the license races. The classification takes place according to the BDR categories.
organization
The race was organized entirely on a voluntary basis. The entry fee covered around 40% of the event costs. The annual funding gap was closed by the namesake. The basic intention of the organizers was to build an annual event around the stoppomat , so that the users of the permanent timing systems have the chance to prove their stamped climbing times in front of an audience once a year and to get to know the respective opponents. The organizing association was the Freundeskreis Uphill . The organizers' demands included a race on a cordoned-off track with electronic timekeeping in addition to a marquee, finisher jersey, stage show, hot showers, a manufacturer's expo and a photo service.
