Almost 30 drivers were named in stock. Unbelievably strong field of racers. However, one man dominated the class with his XRAY X4! Tobias Sutrich was untouchable. He won all 4 heats as well as the finals 1 and 2! Unbelievable performance! Keep it up!

My XRAY X4 felt incredibly good during training. Consistent, easy to ride, and incredibly fast. In seeding I was able to run the hot lap 14.5. So everything looked perfect in the heats. But after I changed to my race tires, the car didn't have the pace like before. My fastest time was only 15.1. So I think my tire set was a bad one, because I didn't change anything only my tires. So I had a handicap in the heats. Nevertheless, I was able to decide Q1, 2 and 4 for me. In the first TQ for the finals. 1st final I unfortunately drove too close to the carp and ended up in the meadow. I was able to choose A2 and A3 for myself. So I was able to get the overall victory. A3 was very exciting until the end. A huge compliments to Christian Holzer with his XRAY finished 3rd!

A successful weekend comes to an end! I would also like to say a special thank you to Sascha Klug who supported me throughout the race. Big compliments to the organizers of the RC Parndorf! Supply, location and their friendliness were on point! I hope for a further run at RC Parndorf next year.
