Xray are reporting on their win in the 19T Stock class at the Team Orion Speed Weekend last weekend in Germany. The stock class was TQ’d and won by Bastian Henning driving his Xray T2 and they managed to get 5 cars in the final whilst in Modified they got 2 Xray T2007 cars in the final with Jilles Groskamp just missing out on the win and Martin Hudy finishing in 8th.

Although Jilles had bad luck in the first final, he showed his driving skills and car performance in the second final charging hard to take 2nd in the second final behind Marc Rheinard (securing the overall event win for Marc) and winning the third final by 2 seconds after fighting to pass Simo Ahoniemi.

New Corally RDX on the way?

Corally RDX

Our Swiss friends over at RCWorld.ch have this nice piece of reporting about the all new Corally RDX chassis. Seen on the GM Racing site is the above picture highlighting their GM brushless motor on Marc Fischer’s car which inadvertently displays the prototype chassis from the Dutch manufacturer. A picture that no one else at the Team Orion Speed Weekend was able to get, due to obvious secrecy reasons.

Update: RaceRC.dk, also managed to bag a picture of a prototype RDX.
