Round 3 of the Danish Electric Off-road Championship was held at the RC Kongen outdoor track last weekend. The track was laid out with both old and new carpet, making setup a bit difficult. The track is also the home track of the Douglas and Kaerup families and both showed instant speed during the practice rounds. In the 2WD class Jesper Rasmussen set the pace in Q1 in front of Frederik Hovgaard. Jesper and Frederik upped their speed in every round of qualifying with Jesper holding the upper hand. Behind the two the battle for 3rd was closed between Lasse Bak and Marcus Kærup. Just behind the top 4 it was on-road driver Mike Hansen as Jonas Kærup was showing great speed but some electronic problem in every round stopped him to make full five minute runs.

Round 3 of the BRCA Clubmans Series took place at Aldershot Model Car Club. All of the Championship leaders and contenders were present for what was to be a sun drenched meeting for the whole weekend. Saturday saw a packed pit area with most of the competitors arriving for that all important practice on one of the Souths best tracks, with its infamous chicane onto the very long straight which leads into a banked sweeper – if taken incorrectly this could easily see you taking a trip into the scenery – then to the fast infield section to complete the lap. As it was dry weekend Sweep 34 control tyres would be used for the TC classes and Sweep SW control tyres also for the Formula class.

Adam Hall (HB Racing) was testing out different suspension setups in the first three qualifiers, found a perfect setup in round 3 that allowed him to TQ round 3 and 4 for the overall TQ. Adam then had a great start in the final, getting a clean take off and race throughout allowed him to take the win in front of the Team Associated duo of Robson White and Dave Bailey.

Last weekend the first round of the Pro Stock Series was held at the WMC-Wiesbaden track. The track, that will also host the Pro-Stock-Series final later this year, saw exciting and fair races under beautiful weather conditions. Saturday’s practice showed that there was no favourite in both classes and as expected, the qualification was close. In the 1/8th class Michael Kosok took the TQ ahead of Wolfgang Hederich and Rudi Hofsäß while in 1/10th 200mm Touring it was Alexander Kien with the pole position ahead of Marcus May and David Ranft.

The second round of the Polish Electric On-road Nationals was held at the Ruda Slaska track recently. In the competitive 13.5T stock class it was Jakub Klapacz with the TQ from Krystian Kopacki and Arkadiusz Smyk, however the finals were not run after the organisers had to call it a day following torrential rain. This meant the qualifying results were taken as the overall ranking with Jakub taking the win from Krystian and Arkadiusz.
