There is only a small number of groups constructing a ‘transformer‘ like this which, with one push of a button, can turn itself from an ordinary looking truck into a pub on wheels for a hundred people. In the Czech Republic, one piece like this is being built in Štětí, the Litoměřice region, and our MKR team is at the birth of this European uniqueness. more

The last main race of this year’s European Truck Racing Championship in Le Mans, France, saw David Vršecký make a fatal mistake. Not only that with his driving style together he caused a serious accident with the assistance of Antonio Albacete but this also cost him his position of the Czech number one, moving his team under the podium to the much hated fourth place in the Teams’ Championship. Thanks to his final third the title of the best Czech pilot can now be assigned to our young pilot Adam Lacko, whilst MKR Technology has become the best Czech team. more

Three millimetres decides the result of season.
Literally three millimeters decided the final podium positions of the European Truck Racing Championship this year. Our dream of winning consecutive Team Championships, repeating our success of last year fell away in Saturday´s main race in Le Mans, France. our three trucks were supposed to start from the first three positions on the grid after a great result in qualifying but what followed was a penalty after the scrutineering officials measured the chassis on our trucks and decided that two of them were too low. This meant that Markus Bösiger and Markus Oestreich would have to start at the back of the field. Just three millimetres saw the end of a very good points result. Adam Lacko tried to raise the mood of the team with a third place in race 1 and a win in race 2. more
