European Championship 1/12 at Hinckley, GB
Hello racers, me again, this time reporting from the Euros 1/12 at Hinckley, Great Britan.
The race was held from 04.-07. march 2010.
I arrived at the track on thursday morning and started to unpack and built up my pits for the next 4 days.
The track and the pits were done very nicely by the BRCA, well, I did not suspect anything else. The brits always do a superb job for 1/12, lots of countries could learn from that.
Controlled practice started on thursday and running both 10.5 and Modified would keep me quite busy without a mechanic...
Having won the Hildesheim Christmas Cup 2 months ago, Jürgen "Schnelle Henne" Hennemuth, Thomas Plöger and Merlin Depta, all three 2-speed/LMI Racing pilots, again dominatied at Hildesheim Cup's all three classes.
With a perfect result of 600 points, Thomas (S400) and Merlin (S120T) won the Cup at all.
It was the last indoor race so far, sothat now the outdoor season can start. The three racers are looking forward to smooth racing in the North German region, German Nationals in Rötz and of course the EFRA GP in Hildesheim this year.
Hope to meet you all at the track and have some nice racing....
“The spanish racer Víctor Peláez will use the serpent 733 for this season. The two times Spanish champion and 4º in the Euro B of Ampuis will help the spanish distributor Modelcar promoting the new 733. Víctor had the following to say about the deal:
I would like to thank Modelcar / Serpent for the opportunity they have given me to run the new 733. I will do my best to win the Championship title this year. Since the first day of testing the 733, i felt very confident, the car is amazing and I’m really happy with it.”

Hi again racers!
The last weekend the first round of the Spanish Championship was hold in the Modelcar Track in Cerdanyola, close to Barcelona.
This race was my first “big race” with the 966. So I had a lot of work in order to find a good setup of the car. However when I arrived on Friday morning, the track was wet. Until three o’clock the track wasn’t in good conditions for doing some tests. I had some problems on Friday afternoon so I ended my test day without any conclusions and with a lot of doubts.
