crazy looking track

I found a site of live scoring/results page:

http://www.myrcm.ch/myrcm/main?dId[E...;1]=com&pLa=es

Click on the 2wd link and you'll find the menu on the left.

Congrats to X Factory drivers Tom Cockerill and Ellis Stafford, 2nd and 1st respectively in round one and sitting 2nd and 3rd overall!

I found a site with interviews from those two drivers after their great round one placings! http://www.oople.com/rc/photos/euros2009/day2/


Just also uploaded the photo gallery from Day 1 - worth checking out I think maybe. http://www.oople.com/rc/photos/euros...tos/index.html

Way to go Hupo!! TRF driver Hupo Honigl pulls off the overall win with his TRF equipped B4.

It's truly amazing to see that after being released way back in 2003 that the B4 is STILL the car to beat all over the world. Even on astro!!!

Now on to the 4WD Class!! Any predictions?
