The opening round of the Polish On-Road Nationals was held in Jelcz-Laskowice last weekend. The event saw the running of a multitude of electric and nitro classes and in Touring 17.5T Stock it was Michal Milanowicz with the overall TQ from Tomasz Fryc in 2nd. A1 saw Tomasz taking the win after a couple of mishaps of Michal allowed Tomasz to pass the pole position holder. In A2 Michal was able to hold onto the lead and to bring home the win by a small 0.5 seconds margin from Tomasz in 2nd. So the third and final A-main would bring the decision and ultimately it was Michal who walked away with the win and thus the overall victory with Tomasz Fryc in 2nd and Adrian Lippich in 3rd. After the race Michal became aware that he was using a too small diameter rotor in his motor and after reporting his mistake to the judges in great sportsmanship, it was decided that he was able to keep the win since he couldn’t report himself and he was just reminded to use a legal rotor the next race.
