Ronald Volker wins European TC Champs

This years European Championship for Touring cars held in Montbrison France is over, and it is Ronald Volker that has taken the overall win for Hot Bodies. The first final saw a win for the pole man, and Xray driver, Steven Weiss, followed home closely by former World Champion Marc Reinhard for Tamiya, while the 3rd spot went to Volker. The 2nd final was the same 3 drivers at the front but in a different order, with Volker managing to squeeze past Weiss for the lead which he held till the end in front of Weiss in 2nd and Reinhard in 3rd. The 3rd leg of the final would be the decider and it was Volker once more that made his way to the front to take the lead after Weiss left a small gap which was enough to let the Hot Bodies driver through. Weiss proceeded to follow to try and regain the lead but a mistake cost him several positions and eventually allowed Reinhard up into 2nd and Groskamp into 3rd with Weiss demoted to 4th. This final result gave Volker and Hot Bodies the win, with Weiss in a hard fought 2nd for Xray and Reinhard for Tamiya in 3rd taking the final podium spot.
