Hey guys - back from RC Offroad Worlds 2015 and after some days between 46/115 degree and cool home i have to say...it was great!!!! Some people who was there will think - did the sun burned his brain or did he forget how hot it was? No, i did't forget and yes it was crazy f.... hot but at the end only the fun memory with the guys who have experienced the same will stay!!
About some courses we drove i did't have the best memory and i have to take 2 DNF's of 6 courses. One DNF course everybody told me - don't try gate one, but i tryed and failed and also have to straddle like the others. Gate two the people said also don't loose time and staddle but i tryed and cleared without pushing the gates(only Krawler Kev tryed it and got it also). After clearing gate three i thought...If i could clear 2, perhaps i could clear 4 also without straddle(people also told me not to try!) and i tryed and looooose...Boundery, Boundery...DNF. Perhaps if i straddeled i could finish the course and save some points....perhaps...
At the end only 8 points left to the finals, but i also got a tip on another course who save my ass on these run and all together i'm very happy with my 12th! Somtimes i looked how the the other drivers made their job and all i saw drove more than good!! Not so much driver on the start, but so much good one's you could believe!!!!!
This year the courses where much harder than last year and every gate we have to show the best performance we could give and somtimes we need a little bit of luck...and somtimes a little bit more. But don't missunderstand - the much more importend thing was a good driver not luck!
Some things i also have to say:
- Remedy work's great...but i missed the Bmachineteam Derrick & Bruce!!!
- my new holmes hobbies motors worked awsome!
- the GensAce batteries did't have any issue with 46/115degree...and don't forget we'r driving in the sun, not in the shadow!!
Thank's to Holmes Hobbies and all the others sponsors who made this event possible! It was f..... hot, but i loved it! I'm not shure if i could handle to come back next year, but I'm very happy to meet so much cool guys this year one time more or first! Thank's for the cool time!!!
Special thank's to our new friends who spent us shadow the hole weekend!!
Some impressions...
I think this one was the easiest course, but i drove not really good. Double fault already at one gate. Not the best quality, because only filmed with a i-pad...
