Fantastic background, beautiful asphalt track sugar-treated for perfect grip, almost all top drivers from Czech and Moravia, and last but not least perfect weather for racing. This was the racing weekend of the final race of the XRAY Challenge 2009/2010 at XRAYâ™s home track in TrenčĂn.
World GT
This may be the most incredible category: reasonable maximum speed and acceleration thanks to the rear-driven axle, low CG and ground clearance so therefore it naturally looks like real car racing. Marek ČernĂ˝, Marek ČernĂ˝, Marek ČernĂ˝. This name has been mentioned over and over. Radek Flek, Roman KořĂnek, Tomáš Knopp and the rest of the 37 drivers in this category had to accept defeat from this young talented driver from Moravia.

Marek claimed the TQ on the first day and kept it until the last qualification on Sunday. His perfect performance was crowned by winning all three finals and taking not only the race victory but also the overall victory in this category for the 2009/2010 season. Tomas Knopp (a novice in this category) drove great to a 2nd place finish and Radek Flek took 3rd. We also must mention drivers like Petr Hruška, Jan Vláčil or David Čermák who took a Top 10 placing.

Superstock
Top Czech and Moravia drivers â“ along with wild-card driver Juraj Hudy â“ formed the final Superstock 13.5 race. This category had so many great drivers who showed promise right from the start. Radek Flek from RC Club Blansko was the man to beat; his mistake-free driving gave him the TQ. In the finals, Juraj Hudy and Jan Moravek battled with Radek for the top place, although ultimately one win and two 2nd places made Radek the overall winner.

IC Track
As the third driver of last yearâ™s championship, Martin Hudy was an experience not only for drivers who had the chance to compete with him but also for the spectators. Martin set the pace right from the beginning and without any mistakes won all the runs. In the finals, Martin confirmed his domination and won by 3 laps ahead of Juraj Hudy.
