Jilles Groskamp takes ETS Rd2 win

Modified top 3

The curtain has come down on the second round of the inaugural European Touring Series in Vejle, Denmark, and it was Jilles Groskamp and Nicolai Nielsen that leave Vejle in Denmark with the main silverware. The weekend produced plenty of thrilling race action but in the end it was those that set the pace in qualifying that ruled the finals. Groskamp overcame strong pressure from his Tamiya team mates in the finals to score an important victory over Marc Rheinard n 2nd and Viktor Wilck in 3rd. In the Pro Stock class it was TQ man Nicolai Nielsen that won the overall in front of Palle Hornum and an unfortunate Rasmus T. Callesen in 3rd.
