Round 2 was located in Fakse about 75 kilometers from Copenhagen, the track for this event was very twisty with many low speed corners and chicanes, which gave a lot of troubles for many of the drivers and in morning practice rounds the grip was very poor, so a good set-up was hard to find.
In the 27T class there was not so many racers in attendance but again it was Brian Lages who was looking good and he could take Pole Position after the second round followed by Emma Lundgreen and Jesper Rasmussen.
In A-finals it was Brian again in good shape and he could win the three A-finals in the front of Emma and Jesper, in the third final Jesper had a very good run and pushing Brian very hard in the end of final and they was split by 0,03 second at the finish line.

In SuperStock 19T qualifying it was Nicolai Nielsen that was the man to beat on his homeground with Schumacher Cup winner Mike Hansen very fast and close to Nicolai, the HB driver Jesper Hoyer could again find himself in top three after qualifying. The big loser in qualifying however was Soren Jeppesen, a very poor performance found him in the B-final, not a result was he has expecting.
In the first final leg Mike Hansen was able to put a pressure on the polesitter Nicolai Nielsen and could pass when Nicolai hit a barrier gifting Mike the first leg win. Second leg saw Nicolai back in front and he could take a lights to flag victory with Mike right behind his rear spoiler in 2nd. The 3rd A-final saw Nicolai and Mike once more battling very hard and Mike was able to push very hard on Nicolai with what seemed to be a quicker car, Mike was eventually able to get passed Nicolai and take his Corally to the victory and overall win followed by Nicolai Nielsen and Jesper Hoyer.
