The year 2010 kicked-off very nicely with the annual DHI Cup in Denmark. The organizers have been constantly improving this race and its popularity has moved this race into a high-level race event. After a short break during the Xmas holidays we were back into the middle of the action. The race was not so bad for XRAY and in the beginning it even looked very promising but in the final results we honestly could have done better or used a bit more good luck. I do not know why or how, but in the last several major electric touring races Team XRAY starts off with incredible performance setting the pace in practice but once the qualifiers starts the competition eliminates those differences. This was the same situation at DHI…..

We came back to Mäntsälä again for the 2nd ever European Championships held on a carpet surface with touring cars. After a fairly successful warm-up race a few months prior, I felt that I had a good chance to do well.

Race report by Teemu Leino.
The 2010 1/8 buggy World Championships are to be held in Thailand at the Pattaya PRC track. The track is a simply awesome, superb facility. I have not been to many 1/8 off-road races around the world, but I think it would be difficult to make a much higher level R/C track. Of note were the exceptionally nice pits (LCD screens to follow the race), you could order all kinds of food from your pit table, and there was transportation between the hotel and track every day. If you missed something, the track crew could be counted on to get it sorted out for you.

Race report by Paul Lemieux
The Snowbirds is held at the Radisson World Gate hotel in Orlando, FL just a couple miles from Disney world. The race started with practice on Tuesday the 26th, and ran through Sunday the 31st. The track is a temporary carpet track that is set up in the grand ballroom of the hotel. This race is always special because it combines oval and road course racing, oval has half of the hours in the day and road course is set up the other half, so there is racing going on almost all hours of the day.
