Patrick Hofer wins 4WD Modified at Swiss nats Rd4

The fourth round of the Swiss 1/10th buggy nationals took place at the dusty and slippery Dielsdorf track that recently received a new and very tricky double jump. Team Associated’s Patrick Hofer dominated the 4WD qualifying and took TQ with his B44.2. For the A finals Patrick decided to take the risk and take the dreaded double in one jump and this got him a clear win in the first final leg. Come the second final Hofer got into trouble early in the race when crashing and dropping back the field. But by taking the double in one leap every lap he was able to shorten the distance to leader Peter Forster and he eventually overtook him by using the double to pass the Yokomo driver. This handed Patrick the overall win on front of Peter Forster and Patrick Vogt (Team Durango).
