The 4th round of the Austrian Electric On-road Nationals was held at Team Speed Freaks track in Krieglach with 30 racers signing in for the Touring Car Modified, Touring Car Stock and Formula classes.

In Touring Car Modified the battle was on between reigning champion Dominik Vogl and his hardest competitor Patrik Gollner, but this time Patrik was the faster man on track and he pushed hard in the qualifiers to grab the TQ in front of an extremely quick Mario Sowka. The 3 spot went to Jakob Zündel while Dominik Vogl found himself only in fourth position after the qualification heats.

Round three of the Dutch 1/8th Nitro On-road Championship was held at the track of the Model Racing Genk club. During the last heat of the opening qualifier rain started to fall and due to the declaration as a wet race many drivers were forced to run also the second and third round in order to qualify for the finals. In the main final of the Top class it was Gunther Van Staey (Serpent) who was able to pull away right from the start of the race, setting some very fast laps and showing again his good form this year. Gunther was able to dominate the race and he finished 1 lap in front of reigning EC 40+ champion Frank Baggen (ARC) who is currently in a strong position for the title of the Dutch National Champion. Frank was followed by ARC team mate Ad Vissenberg, who confirmed his good result of the Groningen round and who now bumped up to second place in the overall ranking. In the second category of the weekend, the Nomac Cup class, it was local veteran racer Ad Moelands who took the win in the partly wet final.
