Zeljaś & Pudewell win GP of Pacanòw
Last weekend saw a group of German drivers of the Race-Center-Munzig take up the invitation from their Polish friends to attend a race called the GP of Pacanòw. The race features a nice mixture of nitro an electric classes from 1/10 to 1/8 scale so visitors could get a good impression of what racing is all about. Although the track was very bumpy it featured a very nice layout with fast sweepers and tight corners and a quite long straight which made for it very demanding to set-up. In 1/8 scale Rafal Zeljas took the TQ honours with his Novarossi powered Shepherd Velox and a clear win on his home track finishing first in front of Norbert Omelanczuk and Marcin Marczyky, both also with Shepherd cars. In 1/10 200mm it was the German Capricorn LAB-C01 driver Frank Pudewell, coming from 5th position, that took the win setting the fastest lap of the race, ahead of young Polish talents Jakub Rozycki (TQ) and Filip Zaremba, both having a strong qualification and great race performance with their Kyosho chassis’.
