The weather was fine, track temperature 28°C and excellent drivers at this round. Only 8 drivers could reach the finals. The XRAY TEAM BRAZIL was represented by Fabiano Franco, Flávio Salinet, Jonas Ferstemberg and Luiz Sergio Gonzaga. The heats was very difficult to some drivers who canâ™t run off the crashes.
Luiz Sergio Gonzaga classify on 4th place and Fabiano Franco in 7th place. Flavio Salinet and Jonas Ferstemberg did not reach the finals. Well, the finals is a new race! Everything begins at that moment. The track circuit is very hard to pass without a crash and a STOP & GO. First final, this race deserved to be filmed by Ray Wood. The starting grid was:
1 Lincoln Almeida
2 Hamilton Neto
3 Hamilton JĂşlio 4 Luiz Sergio Gonzaga â“ XRAY FKâ™05
5 Clarel Castilhos
6 Chico Lima 7 Fabiano Franco â“ XRAY FKâ™05
8 Otávio Langowski

After 6 minutes of a amazing race, Fabiano set the best lap at 9.760 with his Xray FKâ™05 but ends in 2nd place. Great finals, great day and the final result was:
1st Lincoln Almeida 2nd Fabiano Franco - XRAY T1FK'05
3rd Clarel Castilhos
4th Hamilton JĂşlio Neto 5th Luiz Sergio Gonzaga - XRAY T1FK'05
6th Hamilton JĂşlio Jr
7th Francisco Lima
8th Otavio Langowski
As team manager of XRAY TEAM BRASIL I can tell that we have chance to put all team on the finals but the âślady luckyâť isnâ™t in our side this weekend. Iâ™m very confident because Fabianoâ™s car was very fast and easy to drive. We, from Xray Team Brasil, will do everything to reach nationals finals on September 10th to 11th!
