Orlowski goes 12-in-a-row at ETS Aigen

Michal Orlwoski has extended his winning streak in the ETS to 12, the Schumacher ace winning a shortened rain effected Round 2 at Aigen in Austria.  Battling rain interruptions throughout the event, it would be Orlowski who secured the overall TQ after topping 2 of the three 4-minute qualifiers that they managed to complete.  Taking the second round of qualifying Marc Rheinard’s Awesomatix would secure P2 ahead of Mugen Seiki’s Ronald Volker and Infinity’s Bruno Coelho, the World Champion having a tough seeding and finding himself running in the third fastest heat.  With Sunday’s weather showing little possibility of any racing, it was decided to end Saturday’s action with the Modified finals.  In A1 reigning ETS Champion Orlowski controlled the race from the front followed home by Rheinard and team-mate Simon Lauter, who benefited from contact between Coelho and Volker.  In A2 it was another perfect drive from Orlowski, an early spin by Rheinard making his drive to 12-wins a row that bit easier.  Coelho would take second ahead of Volker after the German succumbed to the intense pressure from his Portuguese rival.  Winning A3 Rheinard locked in second overall while Volker held off Coelho in second to claim the final step on the podium.  Lauter would finish 5th overall behind Coelho with the second of the three new Infinity IF14 Speciales in the final securing P6 with Viktor Wilck.  With the rest of the classes decided on qualifying order, it was Awesomatix’s Olivier Bultynck who made it two from 2 having also won the season opener at Apeldoorn.  Behind the Belgian, Louis Kretschmer made it an Awesomatix 1-2 with the ARC of Enrico Jung in third.

Atomic MRV 1:28 V-Link RWD Chassis Kit

1:28 specialist manufacturer RC Atomic has announced the upcoming release of its MRV kit.  The MRV has Atomic’s new developed side link RWD chassis which features a new idea, inspired from 1:10 pan car (Fenix Racing), the V-Link pivot system. With this new solution they have been able to further lower the chassis roll centre which couldn’t be achieved previously because of physical limitations that you cannot fix a centre pivot ball below the chassis plate – e.g the MRZ and similar platforms on the market which use Horizontal center pivot ball.  While the V-Link system offering a “virtual roll centre”, where the imaginary joint of the 2 short pivot links, that is ultra-low and result in more mechanical grip when the car attacking corners, more mid corner speed and linear steering response.  This makes the car easier to drive, with more rear grip, and more speed exiting corners.  How do you choose between MRX and MRV ? The MRX is more suitable for open class with high KV motors and big tracks, because link-less system offers better overall stability. The new MRV is good for lower KV motors, such as 2500kv or stock class, since the MRV is lighter and more responsive in handling especially suit for small or tight tracks.
