6 Hours MERLIN FUEL Enduro Race
 

Hello from France,

we raced a 6 hours race in touring car.

The Merlin Enduro Race.

MERLIN FUEL provided to all the team the 16% fuel for whole race.

It was a great race.

Here's the video of the start, much better than the start of the 24h Le Mans!!

Au revoir

Holy crap... I bet those engines saw a trashcan afterwards... Did anyone change engines??? :lol:

Im used to changing my conrod after 2 hours of use, :lol:

Did anyone use a Picco based engine???

Those Frenchmen sure know how to have fun. Thats the funniest start I've ever seen.

I bet there are lots of people to see the Tamiya TG10 come in 2nd.
