Team Unico Modellsport enjoyed an excellent performance last weekend at the sixth round of the National Championship at Dabas track as their drivers finished on the first three places in Modified TC class with Serpent S411.

It is running according to EFRA rules on controlled VTEC CPX tires but the heats are 7 minutes long instead of 5 minutes. Buggy classes also run together with Onroad on the same layout at parts of the track which prevents the grip to build up normally and feels inconsistent in these corners. Finding an easy and consistent but fast enough chassis setup for the whole 7 minutes is a challenge and the key for a good result. Cristian Faur, Viktor Juhasz and Gergely Cseko worked together really effectively to achieve the desired success. With 4 wins so far Gergely only needs to achiveve a 2nd place finish in the last 3 rounds to defend his National Champion title in the 2011-12 season also and to take the first title for the S411 in Hungary.

All of them used the new #401495 flex upper deck, without the middle screw in the motormount and they also cut the cross stiffener part there to increase rear flex. This made the car smoother around the corners and improved consistency.

At this event drivers also remembered to Timar “T.T” Laszlo, the man behind T.T Tuning company, well-known from his special tools and custom made parts in the european nitro onroad scene, who suddenly passed away in December, 2011. Our condolences go to his wife and two sons and those who knew him.
