Portuguese Nats rd1 is on the books 🤙 Had a great weekend in Freixedas, Guarda. I was able to Tq and Win in E-buggy and finished 2nd in Nitro 👍 On E-buggy I won A1 and A2 and got the overall win. My SRX8 was extremely fast and easy to drive. My 6Mik tire choice was Rapid Cs and it was awesome.
Regarding Nitro, after winning my semi I would start on pole for the A-Main. I had a good start and was on the lead by a couple of tanks but made a few mistakes by my own through the race and at the end finished 2nd just 6sec behind Joao Figueiredo. Well done Litos 👏 My SRX8 powered...
The ASOGER track is one I have struggled a lot last year. The weather forcast was not good for this race. Anyways, I felt prepared. The design of the F110 SF4 should suit this track a lot better than the SF3.
I brought 2 cars, one for rather high grip with inline lipo configuration and one with lipo cross configuration for low grip.
From last year I knew that in the cold wather the grip would be very low, and it would be crucial to keep temperature in the rear tires.
I ended up using the lipo cross car most of the race as it never got really warm.
EFRA GP Series RD2 is finished! Unfortunately again not the result we wanted.
Qualifying 7th in a field of great drivers I was happy with because I was satisfied especially with our race pace for the finals.
Psycho Nitro Blast with approx 750 entries. Justin Fales was able to qualify into both pro Ebuggy and nitro buggy A mains. In pro Nitro buggy Amain warm up the SRX8 was best it has been but Justin had a massive collision and we had to bring him in getting a 98 second lap. He ended up 13 out of 18.

EFRA GP Rd1, unfortunately this race didn’t really go to plan for me. In practice my car started good, but trying to improve I lost my way with the setup a little bit. Eventually we were back on pace but unfortunately this wasn’t really till the last round of qualifying so a bit late really.
A big number of drivers attended, alone 75 drivers in the F1 class.
We had a full table of Serpent drivers. By the way: if you want to sit at the serpent table at any event, just let us know.
Practice started well with me finishing second in the first and only free practice and continued like that, with another 2nd place in the controlled practice.
I could actually win the first qualifying before I got lost a little bit in the next runs due to changing track conditions. But still I could start from second place.
For the finals I had sorted out my setup issues, by mostly returning to my ETS...
Well, EFRA GP is already in the books. Despite, it was a little frustrating when I ran out of fuel when I was 2nd and just the straight was missing for the finish line, I’m very happy with a final 3rd position and to be on the podium with 2 bigs of RC.
The 2019 Dirt Nitro challenge this year was set to receive a new home in Perris, California. The Perris County Fairgrounds, was excited to hold the event, and was even more excited to have it as a staple in their yearly events moving into the future. With Joey and his Dirt Crew they basically had to build the drivers stand, bring in the dirt, pipes, stakes, as well as all the shipping containers to provide the event. That’s a pretty tall order, but, they were up for the challenge. The event itself was attended by some of the biggest names racing RC cars as well as just about every single manufacturer...
