3 in a row – Coelho lifts ETS title with Apeldoorn win

Bruno Coelho has retained his Yokomo Euro Touring Series title claiming the championship for the third year in succession with victory on his debut at the Apeldoorn track in the Netherlands. Top Qualifier for the fourth time this season, the Xray driver added the third win of his campaign in A3 after the early demise of his main challenger all weekend Ronald Volker. With both having a win each from the opening two A-Mains, Volker pushed hard but it was to be too much and he rolled his Yokomo over the curbing coming onto the main straight on the first run through. This left team-mate & third place starter Christopher Krapp to take up the challenge but despite a good effort of getting the Portuguese driver in touch the German couldn’t mount an attack. With Volker setting a new track record as he finished out A3 finishing it in 9th, his early results would still give him second with Krapp joining him on the podium. Volker’s best result this season, it was a good weekend for the Yokomo team with Yannic Prumper finishing fourth but once again it was Coelho who was the benchmark.

Czech 1/10th Off-road Nationals Rd3 – Report

The third round of the Czech 1/10th Off-road Nationals took place last weekend at the Rychvald astro turf track in the Czech Republic. After races on carpet and dirt this was the third different track surface for the championship so far. Friday’s free practice would be held in good weather conditions but overnight rain would flood the track on Saturday morning and many racers thought the race would be cancelled. However most drivers voted to carry on with racing and the local club did a great job in preparing the track to be at least possible to drive on. In the 2WD class Kaja Novotny used his spare dirt spec buggy which was the jackpot as he was able to lap almost the whole field in each qualifying run.
