Race report by Kuba Simurda
Celebrations of New Year are far behind us and winter season already skipped to its second half. So that HIT – winter racing series. The fourth encounter in Holesov´s sports hall took place on Saturday the 21st in January.

A few lucky drivers, who came inside during Friday´s evening, could send best thanks to organizers. This time the track was built quickly, so that they were able put cars on carpet and go on. Others tasted feel of fast racing line the next day from half past six.

Stock: Even though results from Modified class were not corresponding with Oliver´s targets, Stock was such a different story. Winning first two finals he could just test a new bodyshell in the last one, but he won anyway.

Third place went to his son Martin, who beat the only lady in race – Marketa Vitamvasova. Tono Sloboda managed to finish as fifth.
