VRC PRO 2020 Short Course 13.5T season1 rnd 2 MIKES HOBBY SHOP3
Second round race of SC 13.5 class was raced at Mikes Hobby Shop 3 track.
Pro level qualifying was very interesting, as the all drivers who got to A-main, were inside 7 seconds window. Clyne from Britain was fastest, 1.6s before Aussie driver Clews. Third grid went to French driver Fred Fouilland. As we have wittnessed so many times, including this, wasnt over until checkered was wawed.
Kevin Clyne was unstoppable
All the way from the start, Clyne was fast and flawless. He was hitting those laps after another, inside two tenths. With this pace and style, nobody hadnt any weapons to challenge him and he crossed the line in first position.
Daan Haling, who started from the 9th grid, was furios. Lap by lap he gained positions, kept his rhytm and trophy was waiting. Swedish talent Robert Hillman had bit different opinion about Halings second place and gave a really good battle to Haling. It was matter of rhytm and bit of luck, but it was very enjoyable to watch these two in the battle. At the end Haling was 0.8s ahead Hillman when race ended. So, Pro level podium was Clyne first, Haling 2nd 3.6s and Hillman 3rd 4.3s from the winner pace.
Daan Haling had great race and pace, from 9th to 2nd
Italian Marco Gianotti won SPORT level with 4 seconds margin to Finnish driver Kimmo Sukanen. Austrian Josef Angleitner crossed the line in 3rd place, 4 seconds behind Sukanen.
Club level race was unlucky to half of the drivers. The pitlane expereienced power cut just before the CLUB final, and five drivers didnt had a chance load the batteries and no chance to participate for the final. But we had five good gladiators to solve the winner. Finally after 8 minutes race, Stanislav Pavlicek crossed the line first and got well deserved victory. But it didnt come easily as the man who came to second place, US driver Jeff Statkiewicz, was only 0.5 seconds behind. Britain driver Tim Simpson was third.
Robert Hillman was 3rd
