After some heavy rain, the race was moved from RCCS to SOS. The track was still wet, but after two rounds of qualifying the track was dry, and when we reached the finals it was almost dusty.

The semi-final went very smoothly. The car was very good and I got a clean start and led the whole race to secure the pole position for the final.
Likewise in the semi I got a clean start, and quickly pulled out a gap. The combination of XRAY/Pro circuit (sweet shot Green)/Novarossi worked out perfectly, and at the end of the final I was 2 laps ahead.

Round 3
Round 3 was like Round 2, held in SOS. A lot of rain had caused big troubles the days before, but after the practice the track was just fine. The organizers had made some changes to the layout compared to the last race. In particular were five new jumps, just after the straight, which caused everybody some problems.
The qualifier was a bit hard as we were struggling with the set-up, but we were getting closer. By the time the last round was done, the car was okay. Despite a rough start I was 3rd after the qualifier. We made a few changes for the semi-final. The car was now getting really good, and I found a good pace.
Like the last race on this track, I used Pro Circuit (sweet shot green) and a Novarossi engine, which was perfect as usual. When we reach the final, I had a good feeling.
In the final I took the lead on the first lap, and kept that position through the whole race and finished 1 lap ahead.
