Slovakia cup R1 took place in one of the best RC arenas in the world, the Hudy Arena in Trencin, Slovakia. Slovakia Cup consists of six categories 4wd buggy, 2wd buggy, Formula, 2wd on road, Stock and Modified.
I was racing in category modified and it was my first carpet race with the new XRAY T4’15.

In modified, there were twelve drivers. There were four qualifications and three finals. Big favorite of this category was Martin Hudy who gave me very useful instructions for perfect set-up of my new T4’15. My biggest rival was the home driver Tomas Liptak. In first qualification I was second behind Martin Hudy, third was Tomas only 0,01s behind me. In second qualification I was third because I made many mistakes, first was Martin and second Tomas. In third and fourth qualification I was second behind Martin and Tomas finished third. Martin also won all final runs with myself in second place and Tomas in third.
In every qualification and final I tested different setup and in two last finals my car was perfect.
