USA Nats 200mm Nitro

Serpent reports - "This past weekend we had the 2008 sedan Nationals at the very hard Fort Myers track in Florida. Myself and Paolo arrived Wednesday afternoon and started getting ready for the race. The qualifiers started on Friday and I had a few things to try and get ready. Most of the tops drivers were there and it was going to be a very close race.

T2’008 & Threhout French Champion 2008

Team Xray reports - "The last round of the French Nationals was held on September 27-28 in Rumilly. This indoor track is one of the most beautiful in France. Saturday morning, when we arrived at the track the temperature was around 3°C, the grip level was very low. Xray drivers were already very confident about the car because we came 2 weeks earlier for a training session. Aurélien was the fastest in qualifying. He was the only one to do 22 laps in the second and third rounds. In the fourth round of qualifying, two other drivers managed to pass 22 laps. I also had a very fast car but made some mistakes."

On Saturday, the teams had just an hour to familiarise themselves with the track and to find a good buggy setup. We were very happy with our XB808 right from the start, which meant that my team partner had time to get used to the car and my transmitter. The condition of the track was good, with excellent grip."
