- Team Xray XB4-2wd - Jan Ratheisky - LRP-HPI Off-Road Challenge - Burgdorf - 08.06.2014 -



Q1: At the beginning I struggled a little bit because the track was very wet due to the rain all night long and I drove only one race before in normal conditions, so I broke my car in bad jumping at the end of the straight.

Q2: The track was still wet but I made a very good run and won this qualification.

Q3: Still wet track but I was able to make another awesome run again with a P1.

Final 1: Start to the finish line win because rest of the field got tangled in series of mistakes and crashes.

Final 2: I was leading the whole race but the track conditions were now mixed and I had chosen wrong tires resulting in lot of understeering. So Yannick Wilcke caught me in the last lap and with a good clean overtake took the win in this 8 min final.

Final 3: The track was drying fast and I paid more attention to my tire choice. I was pushing a lot to not allow Yannick to set me under pressure again. Luckily Thomas Oehler was also very fast and battled with Yannick for 2nd position and that gave me a chance to build a good comfortable gap. I won this final and got my first ever off-road win. I’m very happy about that and my car works very well!
