The only reason American drivers have done okish at the Worlds, is because it's held on the same sort of tracks they race on all of the time, surely a "World Championship", should be held on different sorts of tracks, bit like Tennis, you have the guys who can play on grass courts, or clay, etc, but the top guys can play well on all sorts of courts.
Anyway, back on subject, any news of how 4wd is going? |
To put it bluntly, they cannot compete at our level. After the basildon worlds the top twenty attended the southend GP and the the WC Kinwald only just managed to keep third place and was three quarters of a lap behind kevin moore. Ben stunham also showed everyone how a cougar 2000 can go by the best of the best with it and he was not the best uk 2wd racer so the ifmar surface rules do need to be updated to nowadays. Its called a worlds for the best racers so different countries have different environments and weather so of couse different racing surfaces to cope with that and as they are the best they shouldnt find it hard to set up to the conditions
