Of the 10 qualified for the Main Final only 5 racers were able to do their Main Final runs, with the absent 5 racers most likely being involved in 'real' r/c racing that weekend. But this Main Final produced nevertheless the closest finish ever: just 0.014 seconds separating 1 and 2. The spectacular Barco track offered some of the best off-road racing ever seen. Imagine on this track 2024 World Champion Gary Crowell doing just 1 'bad' 34 seconds lap, just 1 lap in the 33 seconds and all the other laps in the 32 seconds. And runner-up Luke Skywalker (aka Billy Caley, using this pseudo account for unknown reasons) about the same. You should really check out the lap chart!

The Montpellier off-road track is not only one of the most scenic off-road tracks, it is also one of the most challenging off-road tracks with a great variety of corners, jumps and track surfaces. The 2024 Worlds Short Course Trucks saw many lead changes. Multi talent and 2024 World Champ 1:12 electric Wiktor Smid had his usual crash at the beginning of the Main Final but then showed his class with all laps but 2 in the 33 seconds range, on such a difficult track! Watch the video to find out!

Simply insane: The Bamberg Oval course measures 152m, and the winner averaged 6.289 sec/lap with his fastest laptime being 6.170 sec, and averaging 87km/h with a topspeed of 114.8km/h. Who else then the 'King of the Ovals' can produce these numbers. The new Bamberg asphalt oval presented a complete new challenge to the oval racers, gaining even a tenth of a second could take 2 or 3 laps. See for yourself!

Can anyone beat Mr. Flack or should we say Mr. 'Checkered Flag' as he always seems to be first at the finish line. He has several nicknames, 'King of the Ovals', 'the Metronome', ticking of laps within one tenths of a second as if it's AI that controls the car. This SC Truck Dirt Oval race is again testimony of his supremacy on the ovals, dirt and asphalt. Billy Caley from the US and Nutty Fox had to settle for 'best of the rest' after a closed battle for 2nd and 3rd.
