The 2014 EFRA Electric Offroad European Champsionships are being held this week in Trelleborg, Sweden.

In the 2WD class, run earlier this week, defending champion Jörn Neumann (Team Durango) took the opening three qualifying rounds, looking to have secured the TQ position early but a late charge from Lee Martin (Yokomo) handed the UK star the pole position for the A-finals as he TQ’d round 4 and 5 with a faster time, denying Neumann the prestigious TQ spot.
