Race report by Bruno Coelho

Last weekend held the 4th Round of Portuguese 1/10 TC Nationals in Monsanto, Lisbon, Portugal. Due to the not many entries in Modified class, Alexandre Hagberg and I needed to race in Stock class, which makes us a little bit stressed as we needed to change everything on the car for stock class. After many changes and slowly trying to know all the details about stock class our cars started to work pretty well and I managed to TQ after a very strange qualifying as some people were saving the tires because we had only 2 sets of tires for the entire race and the tire wear was very high. In the finals, I decided to race the first main with used tires (already 4 qualifies) to try to save the new set for the second final. My strategy worked as I planned and I was able to hold Miguel Matias on the first final and on the second final already with new tires I had a clean round finishing in front with a good and comfortable gap. Alexandre in the third final was able to finished 1st which gave him 2nd place on the final podium right behind me. Our cars worked great and I was very happy to see so many XRAY drivers on the track
