| On July 23, 2006 during the fourth round of the Dutch National Championship, all podium places were captured by XRAY drivers. This unique result was due to the easy driveability of the T2-chassis on the hot AMCA-track in Apeldoorn, The Netherlands. |

| In the 12T Modified-class it was XRAY driver Bart Wubben, the man to beat since the last LRP weekend. Despite a fierce challenge by young AMCA driver Hugo van den Berg, Bart would win both races with Hugo both times in 2nd place. Tony Vredenberg rounded up the podium finishers with his XRAY. |

After the three qualifying sessions in the 19T Stock class, a mere seven XRAYs managed the top 10 but the TQ-spot was for TC3(!) driver Jan van Steeg who celebrated his birthday with this pole position. After a win in the first race, Jan had a disastrous second race and lost a podium finish. Johnny Jonker could win the meeting with a 2nd and 1st place. Patrick van der knaap even managed the 2nd podium spot with a 5th and a 2nd place. There were also 7 points gained by Steven Koiter who came in 4th and 3rd but had to settle for 3rd overall because of the better qualifying-position of Patrick.
So at the end, all six podium places were XRAYs, with Bart and Johnny taking over the lead in the both championships with two races to go. |
