Race report by Janos Birinyi
The fifth round of the RCProf cup was held at Budapest in the RCAréna XRAY drivers attended 2 touring car categories, stock and modified.

Stock: I could win the first qualifying with an impressive 4 sec lead. The second qualifying wasn't that lucky as I finished second position with 0.5 behind the leader. The Q2 was faster than the first one so I knew I will have a change only in the Q3 to take the first position on the starting grid. Unfortunately I made a mistake and I couldn't get the TQ position, but laptimes were promising for a better position in the finals. So I finished 2nd in qualifying. In the first final I was attacking the leader during the whole final and in the last lap we collided and unfortunately I came out worse from the situation, so I finished second in that final. The 2nd final also brought a close fight, we also collided there in the last lap, but I came out better from this one, so we were waiting for the third final to decide. Luckily I could take the lead early and with precise driving I could win the last final thanks to the great car, so I won the event.
