RC Lemans Rd4 – Report

Round four of this year’s RC Lemans Series was held this past weekend at the M.A.C. de Baanbrekers club in Rucphen, the Netherlands. Partly damp conditions made things interesting, nevertheless most of the qualifiers and finals could be run in dry conditions. With the qualifiers not being counted by points and following a dry and a slightly damp qualifier the final round would be the rocket round to qualify for the A-mains in both the Modified and Stock classes. In the Modified class it was Reinder Wilms who was able to score the only 23 laps qualifying run to take a maiden TQ in the RC Lemans Series. Behind the Dutchman Tobias Weist, Sven Stoffels, Tim Altmann and Marc Lorenz completed the top 5 with all four being covered by only a couple of seconds.
