Agree with you Apple. The C and B have top names, some having been in the A in the past and know the track well. Its going to take something extraordinary for Jilles to get to the A now.

Jilles has just won the C final and now lines up in 12th for the B, He's getting close. He finished 3 laps up on Art Carbonnel

wow..... that's great news.... ...

i do think he has a slight advantage now.... he has 100000000000 laps of practise over the rest ;-)


I am telling you, if he gets into the A... he will win it.

That's very impressive. even if he doesn't make it to the A he is the story of this event. I hope he does make it though!

Based on Round 5 results, he should have been right behind Josh in 4th position in the A Main. He's got some stiff competition coming up in the B and A Mains (if he makes the bump) - and those guys are fresh, if you know what I mean.

It will be incredible if Jilles wins it all. Snowbirds and Winternats? That would be very impressive.

Amoung Team XRAY, Ralph is still has the fastest. Paul and Martin C. will be right on his tail. Both of them are just a tad slower than Jilles' fastest time, based on qualifying results.

Paolo is still the man to beat. The current Winternats champion may make it two in a row, proving once again, that in very capable hands, Serpent can cross the finish line first.

Jilles is awesome, incredible! With a new car, on a (for him) new track these results are really great! Two thumbs up!

Someone spoke about 'racer of the week', I think Jilles deserves a 'racer of the year' award as good as he is performing in both electro as well as nitro classes!

Go Jilles, you can reach the A-mains!!

I don't remember that was in WinterNat or not, but isn't Bobby Flack did something similar several years ago...? He never completed a qualifier, and ended up somewhere like H main or something, then won every single round and ended up to the A.....like he ran 4-5 gallons of fuel before the A-main.
