Sallanches, APJSL club hosted the French Cup 2008. This beautiful track, located next to “Mont Blanc,” is well suited to 1/10 electric cars with some interesting corners.

Grip conditions steadily improved over the practice, and event days adding to the increased speeds seen throughout the weekend. After the initial practice, I knew my car had an awesome pace. The setup was very good with both new and old tyres. I was able to continue this during the 6 qualification rounds to secure pole position for the finals. Patrick Miltat, the second XRAY driver in the “A main,” qualified in 7th position.

In the finals my XRAY T2’008 was super fast. I had fairly untroubled races in the finals which let me take the win in the first two finals. With such a good car I managed to make a “no mistake race” and take the victory. The car always stayed well balanced with good traction and a lot of cornering speed.
Patrick Miltat finished the race in 6th position.
