Daniel Kobbevik double at Norwegian Nats Rd2

Round 2 of the Norwegian Nationals was held at the technical and bumpy astro track ‘Radoy Raceway’. This is on the west coast of Norway, so weather can change fast and be pretty bad, but this weekend was warm and nice weather. Every thing was organised well and it was good amount of drivers and fun in the pits. 2wd qualifiers started Saturday morning and Daniel Kobbevik was in his own league, taking the TQ in all four rounds. That meant Daniel could start from pole with his Hobbywing/Sunpadow powered Xray XB2. In A1 Daniel pulled away right away and lapped the whole field. In A2 Daniel was hit by a car in the start and when Daniel tried to get passed, he was taken out again, falling down to 5th place, and had to work the way back to the front but still managed to take a comfy win. This gave Kobbevik the overall win ahead of Yokomo driver Adrian Sognestad in 2nd and Vincent Rûger with his Xray in 3rd.
