Another fast Dane were succesful on the factory- supported Puch. Under supervision of service- manager Heinz Schösser, Dan Jeppesen of Copenhagen, raced the Puch to several victories. Much faster than everybody else, and at a Knutstorp race, suspicions of an engine capacity of more than 50cc rose! Engineer Sven Håkonsson put an end to the protest, by verifying the measurements! Would you believe that the engine were checked again in a race in Austria! A well- prepared bike and sheer driving talent, put all rumours to shame! At the 1970 RingKnutstorp race, Dan Jeppesen took second place only beaten by Leif Rosell driving a Jamathi. |
