Report by Oiva Metsola
The final round of the 1/10 off-road finnish national series has now compleated in Äänekoski and I am the new Finnish Champion with my Xray XB2'26!?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Practice went well on Friday and I managed to dial my Xray XB2'26 car into a really great setup? From the start of practice on Saturday the car performed excellently! When the qualis began I managed to secure TQ in two of the four rounds. However I started the finals from the second place after @jamielgabrielsson_rc because he also managed to take two TQ rounds and he take the overall TQ.

A1
In the first final I managet to drive a clean run while the others made some mistakes and I managed to lap the entire field.

A2
I knew the second final wouldn't be easy, but I managed to overtake Jamiel and he stayed right on my tail for almost the entire race but he couldn't find a place to overtake me and I managed to keep him behind me to secure victory! So i managet to get both the race win and the series title making me the new Finnish Champion!

I also want to say congratulations to @Kristian Ullakko RC he has been a really tough competitor all summer and we’ve had a grate batles! Congrats on finishing second in the series! And congrats also to Patric Bengs on taking third place in the series!

And huge thanks to @ferret_racing for the help with the car setup and mental coaching throughout the weekend!
