Race Report by XRAY:
XRAY Off-road GP Italy
Race report by Martin Wollanka
It was a very nice and funny weekend. We came on Friday in the morning to the track. It was a nice sunny day on a beautiful track. I found fast and good set-up for this track fairly easily. Later I was testing some changes on my car but it was not so good for me and so I went back to my old set-up.
On Saturday we didn’t have luck with the weather. It was raining and it was impossible to drive so we made some tech tip meetings with the XRAY team. After that we spent a good time in an indoor kart race. Bayer won the race easily and me and Miguel were battling for the second place, but at the end Miguel take the risk and overtook me so I finished third.
In the evening I was working on my car. I put all electric parts for my race and after a conversation with Bayer and Miguel I made some changes to my set-up.
On Sunday the track was mud. After a little wait I was driving my first three minutes with a 1/8 electric car. Than we were driving the first electric qualifying run and in 7th minute I was able to make the fastest lap but I pushed too much and made a mistake so Miguel went to the front but he had some electric problems so I won the qualifying run. After that we run nitro qualifiers. The first run won Bayer in front of Miguel and I drove at third position. In the second qualifying run I pushed more and made the fastest lap on this track. I won and made also the fastest 5 minutes of qualifying runs. Than we had bad luck again with the weather so we made the end result from this three qualifying runs.
Counting the best qualifier results I won both the electric and nitro classes. Sometimes you need also some luck in this sport! I believe that all XRAY drivers learned much during this weekend and I hope we will see each other again.
