Race report by Lorenzo Crolla
This weekend, there was a Charity Race for the Téléthon in a little club in north of the France at Avesne-sur-helpe, 100 drivers was present for this race, ready to take fun and make the spectacle !

My race, i run in 4wd and 2wd with the new XB4 2wd, my priority are the 2wd, it's my first time in 2wd on carpet so i take the free practice to learn this category, 1 lap, and directly in the move ! The car was easy to drive and fast ! I don't talk about the 4wd ... simply happiness to drive !

1 qualifications in 2wd, i start 4th, 5 minutes, no mistakes and 1 lap ahead the 2nd after the 5minutes. TQ !
In 4wd, the same, no mistakes and 1 lap ahead the 2nd. TQ !

2nd qualification ; 2wd i change the rear spring (3dots to 2dots) to have more grip in the rear in the slow corners, good choice, i do a better time (5 sec better than the Q1) and m'y best lap was improved, the same no mistake another TQ with 1 lap ahead the 2nd
4wd i change the anti roll bar, (1.6 to 1.8) the car was more faster, another TQ
So after 2 TQ, i take the overall TQ in both categories !
The 3rd qualification, the same car, the same place .. 1st,

After a little brake, the final begins

A1 2wd, victory but the tire was slick so they make de car difficult to drive ...
A2 2wd, victory, with new tires and i take de best lap of the day in 2wd,

After 2 win, i won the 2wd, i do the A3 but after 3 laps the steering servo broke ...

In 4wd :
A1 smooth driving, keep the lead, and win the race, but i want to try with slick tires and it wasn't the good choice

A2 i change the tires but the oil of the shock wasn't good, too degraded, so i do my best to don't make mistake, and win the race

A3, i change the oil, and recumbent the shock at the maximum ... a new car ! So easy ! I won 0.3 seconds per lap ! My best time before was 20.2 and at the end of the A3 i do 19.9 !

Victory !

To conclude, the XB4 And the XB4 2wd at the top ! new car so another test to do but it was a great start ! Next race : Chrismtas Race at MCCD track near to Paris !
