Last weekend, near Paris, the Damartin MCCD R/C club hosted the first round of the 2014 French 1:10 Offroad Nationals on a tricky indoor track - a mixture of sport hall plastic and carpet flooring.

The 2wd Buggy class was dominated by Stephane Deroch, as he would not only take TQ in qualifying, but also carry on to win all three finals. Ludovic Valtier and Julien Formentin would finish out the top 3.

In the 4wd buggy class it would be 2wd runner-up, Ludovic Valtier, who would take the TQ spot in qualifying. Despite his fast times in qualifying, Valtier would have to settle for second behind Julien Formentin who would take the overall victory with Armand Lantheaume finishing third.
