The 1/8 Off-Road European Championship happened this past weekend at Hudy Arena. This great venue opened the doors again for one more very well organized event.
This Euros was by far one of the strongest Electric Euros ever made with all the European top drivers racing at Hudy Arena.
The team XRAY showed one more time great performance at this Euros managing to top qualify with Bruno Coelho and bring also Martin Bayer and Joni Skidmore to qualify 3 cars into the A-Main, the track was very technical and the grip was low which made it easy for the drivers to make mistakes. The finals were very spectacular for who was watching but for sure very intense for who was driving.

Every final had many overtakes with the drivers giving everything they could to get the win, and in the end, Bruno was able to take the second place in an incredible fight with Canas who took the win in the last final.

Report by Bartek Zalewski
It was my first big 1/8th competition and the way it was organized is really impressive.
I could write a lot about the races, I gave it my all.
I will remember the Last Chance race the most, where everything happened in the last turns and that's racing - nice to meet you Robert Battle and congratulations.
I finished 16th overall and became 2022 Junior European Champion U16.
My XRAY XB8E with Hobbywing, Sunpadow, Savox and 6mik Magma 2.0 9/15 was on point
Congratulations to all of you for your results.
Thanks for your help Martin Bayer, Pawel Ovca, Sebastien Leonard and of course my Dad
