Mark Sousa doubles at Quebec Indoor Nationals
The Quebec Indoor Nationals were held in Degelis, Quebec over the weekend. The track crew laid down a great track that was very technical and high speed and the slippery track surface made it even tougher. Xray’s Mark Sousa would TQ two of the three Nitro Buggy qualifiers for the overall TQ from Damian Lamy while in Nitro Truggy Mark would come out fastest in Q2 and Q3 for the overall as Q1 winner, Eric Deschenes, would take P2 after the qualifiers. Going into the finals and in Buggy Mark quickly realised that the track had a lot more grip compared to qualifying so he went into the main with his setup from qualifying but the buggy was a bit to soft, making it hard to drive so he made a few mistakes in the beginning and went back to last and after that he quickly started to make moves and get back into first. From there he was able to stretch out the lead more and more every lap and was able to take the win with Mugen’s Sam Langer in 2nd and Team Associated’s Damian Lamy in 3rd.
In the Truggy main Mark was starting 1st and he was able to stretch out the lead every lap and take the win with Team Associated’s Eric Deschenes 2nd and Xray’s Pete Elphinstone Jr. in 3rd.
