Rallycross Round 2 @CRCRC roundup
What an amazing weekend of racing we where treated to at CRCRC. Perfect conditions for round 2 of the Rallycross national series. A massive thanks to the club at CRCRC who took care of everyone and ran a great weekend of racing, thanks to Brendan Dowd who kept the show on the road keeping everyone in check at race control, Martin Coleman, Richard Meaney and the many other clubs members who helped over the weekend. Racing in all classes the was tough the extreme hot weather made it feel like a race in Italy rather then Ireland , an ever changing surface made it a challenge for everyone to find the perfect setup.
In 1/8th Ebuggy and Nitro class it ended up as a double podium for William White driving his HB cars to victory after some hard fought battles in both classes.
In Truggy top spot went to Losi driver Adam Steward. A great event for Adam who was very close to a double 1st himself.
