In the right hands, any car can be good. We are lucky to have so many decent cars on the market.

I agree, having stayed up to daft o'clock to watch the racing, there were so many different brands represented in the A main. They all looked capable, Tebo drove the best on the day, that's why he won.

The one thing that bugs me is that if a driver wins the first two legs he then sits out the third, if I had gone to watch this meeting I would have been well disappointed, as the same as what happened in the Euros, perhaps it should be the best of the three rounds and not two.

this way the result is more open and the sponsors and track get more coverage of all the drivers in the final, the other thing to do would be for the second leg the grid positions are as per the result of the first and so on, this way the best driver will be the overall winner. and is this not about the best in the world and the result will not be weighted so much on the qualifying.

With the best skills in the world, you can't stop someone punting you in the backside and ruining your race. 2 from 3 is a balance that rewards consistency but forgives a moment of chaos. Also, if you bag the win in the 1st two rounds, it's the risk of causing a problem and getting a penalty which is why you sit out.

ah guess you got me there, fantastic race and well done guys

Adam F 26-09-2013 06:06 PM

Great result from the UK team, Lee was really unlucky in the second leg..

Amazingly competitive considering we don't have many native dirt tracks...

CARB 26-09-2013 10:17 PM

And shows just how good Tebo is. His words "the least mistakes will win"

Proud to see Lee take 2nd for Tamiya/TRF, hopefully he brings home Tamiyas first offroad Worlds in 4WD :thumbsup: ...

4WD will be electrifying with so many world/former world champs in the running...

It will indeed, especially when you think of the peeps like Tessman & Jorn whose 2wd didn't quite go to plan, they'll be out to prove something.

Add in the new cars (2wd was a bit flat for new things) like the TLR, HB D413 & V4 Durango & it'll be great to watch.

Just popped on to the live feed - The cars are so quick, it looks like the film has been sped up.

AfroP 27-09-2013 05:07 PM

Cavalieri is a really impressive driver

chuckie stella 27-09-2013 05:10 PM

Go on the Brits!

Lee, almost in 2wd pal, bring home the 4wd :thumbsup:
