Se ha disputado la 4ª prueba del cto. Holandés de 1/8 TT en Friesland. Este circuito está completamente hecho en hierba artificial.

La nota predominante de la primera jornada fue el fuerte viento que hacía muy complicado volver a posar el coche tras los saltos que se convirtió posteriormente en lluvia.

The second Round for Spanish Nats 1/8 On-Road was held in Elche track, in Alicante area, managed by Club Carsol

Was a hard race, with temperatures over 35ºC, 50ºC on the asphalt and a high relative humidity. A hard test for engines and fuel.

Oscar Cabezas (Motonica / Novarossi / Merlin Fuel)  TQ’d and set a new track record.

Elche track is small, but really fast. Laptime is just about 12 seconds.

After winning the semi-final, Cabezas kept the first place during almost 30 minutes, closely followed by Sergio Montensinos, who managed to took the first place in the tire change.

Oscar took again the first place after a few laps. A few laps later, Montesinos had glowpug failure, and Cabezas, who was driving with no brakes after a crash with Montesinos could set a comfortable and safe pace to finish the race in first position.

Final result:

1. Óscar Cabezas – Motonica / Novarossi / Merlin fuel<br

elche2Finalizó la segunda prueba del Cto. de España 1/8 pista, disputada en el circuito que gestiona el Club Carsol.

Una dura prueba que se disputó a 35ºC a la sombra, 50º en el asfalto y una alta humedad ambiente.

Oscar Cabezas, (Motonica / Novarossi / Merlin) se adjudicó la pole, como viene siendo habitual, hace ya mucho tiempo y ganó su semi-final. Además pulverizó el record del circuito.

La vuleta al circuito se completa en poco más de 12 segundos, ya que es un trazado pequeño y además muy rápido.

Ya en la final Óscar que partía desde la primera plaza, consiguió alguna ventaja en las primeras vueltas. Sin embargo Sergio Montesinos consiguió bajar esa distancia y permaneció 35 minutos acechando a Óscar, hasta que finalmente la bujía de Montesinos dijo basta y perdió toda posibilidad de disputar la primera posición a Óscar.

Con ello la clasifiación final fue la siguiente:

1. Óscar Cabezas – Motonica
