Race report Nikos Georgiadis
Fantastic weather, fantastic race in early December at FRT and many drivers with high spirits.

The first race of XrayWinterSeries (XWS) was held with great success, with a large participation of drivers and great interest in both 1/10 touring classes but also in new categories of pan cars and F1.

Pan Cars

All cars with foam rubber raced together, 1/10 and 1/12. At first everything was strange since the contestants had no previous experience. Slowly the improvement was evident with the best driver Gklianas who was the most prepared. Proper preparation plays an important role. Nikiforos at 2nd place came to race not prepared so he never managed the laps of Gklianas. We also learned that you can do this hobby very cheap with your car and equipment as the Hatzopoulos, Gavrielides and Christidis did with very old models.

Final results:
1. Gklianas - XRAY X12
2. Nikiforos - XRAY X12
3. Moros - XRAY X12
4. Xatzopoulos - XRAY X12

5. Xristidis
6. Gavriilidis


F1 rubber

Another new class with F1 fans began beautifully with a lot of competition. This class has stricter regulations than pan car class. The cars have to race on the same tires so no advantage to anyone. Zogogiannis had very bad qualifications. Bratis took all qualifications but in finals with a last moment change came second. Maricholas tried to adapt with the control tire and at the end won the race. Panagiotopoulos finally finished 3rd in front of Zogogiannis.

Final results:
1. Maricholas
2. Bratis - XRAY X1
3. Panagiotopoulos - XRAY X1
4. Zogogiannis - XRAY X1
5. Karounis - XRAY X1

6. Xristidis

This new category is getting stronger and stronger and it's very fun to drive especially for the new racers.

A final

In the main final Kazoglou did his magic to be a part of it and finishing in front of many favorites as Papadopoulos, Tsatsamis and Bratis. The free practice and qualifying were important in the race because the track in the morning was completely different and constantly changing during the day. First race and A main for Platanas after a long time with his new XRAY T4. Very good result from Niotis that was the unexpected appearance of the day by taking the third place. John Doucakis has the advantage but Nikos was celebrating his name day and did not let him enjoy. Doucakis took the TQ and won the first leg of main final but in the second and third leg Georgiadis attacked for the first spot and took the win. The level of the first final was amazing. Well done to all.
