- Serpent S120 1/12th scale
“I discovered and started driving 1/12th scale cars during last autumn. I trained a few times and then, raced in 3 races of the French championship (out of 5 rounds).
The first one and the second one were interesting, because I was fast, although I was a rookie in this completely new category (for me). I qualified in the B-main final each time, close to the A.

Flavio Elias makes pole position and wins the first stage of the 2009 Brazilian Championship with the latest Serpent 966.
Using still the same 966 pre-production car he also raced at the Winternats, Flavio won the race after TQ.
Due to a small clutch issue before the start of the final, we had to ask for a delay to repair it and thus had to start from 10th position. Flavio was able to move the 1st position during the course of the race. At the 32 minute mark of the 45 minute final, Flavio changed tyres and then drive to victory in the 1st heat of the Brasil National Championship.
