Last weekend took place the 3rd round of French Nats in Monteux. I ran Stock 10.5 Blinky class where a lot of drivers were fighting for the win. The track was still fast but also technical, it required a car with high corner speed and also a powerful motor during 5 minutes. I've found the perfect setup with my XRAY T4'15 and TRINITY motors and batteries.
I toped seed with one second gap on the three fastest consecutive laps, my car and motor were just perfect!
Qualifications followed as perfect as controlled practices where I won 4 round out of five with five seconds gap each time. The car was just amazing, fast during the whole five minutes!
I preserved one set of new tires for the finals to keep an advantage for the first laps of the first final and I changed my bodyshell to have a bit more steering. I won the two first finals setting the fastest lap of weekend, unfortunately my brother finished only one final because of one crash and a broken belt in the first and third finals.
In modified Jeremy Limoges set a third place in modified with his XRAY T4'15 in qualifications and he climbed on the second step of the podium after good battles in finals!
