Martin Achter crowned 2wd World Champion
Having qualified on pole position, securing the position with another leg win in qualifying today, Martin Achter of Germany is the new 2wd World Champion. In an event only attended by 17 drivers it was actually Craig Laughton that won the first leg of the final but Achter responded by going out and winning both second and third legs with very cool driving. Craig ended up as runner up with Albert Claassons taking 3rd, with the top 3 unchanged from how they qualified. The 4wd class gets underway tomorrow with practice, where Martin will begin as favourite once more, driving the new Durango DEX410.

Exotek Racing HBX LiPo Chassis for Cyclone
Exotek Racing have released the high performance multi adjustment HBX balanced LiPo chassis for the Hot Bodies Cyclone. With the unique CNC manufactured stainless steel weights the LiPo battery can be positioned to have equal left and right balance within grams without the need to add lead weight and without raising the battery up higher. Completely compatible with all Cyclone chassis’, it is designed and tested to equalize lateral flex. No more inconsistent flex problems caused by 6 large battery cut outs like in the stock chassis resulting is much more predictable handling. The 2mm thick chassis mimics the flex of the stock chassis, but by deleting the 6 NiMh battery cut outs it effectively stiffens the chassis so reducing the thickness to 2mm puts a little flex back into the chassis for improved traction.

Azri Amri wins Malaysian Nationals Rd3
Round 3 of the Malaysian National Championship (MNC) took place recently at the usual venue at Titiwangsa Track in the heart of kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Its been a few months since round 2 and there have been quite a number of changes to the drivers line up and the big news is of course the return of Azri Amri to the electric touring scene who is now driving for Team ORCA Racing with his Yokomo BD5. The other driver who has made a switch is Mr. Jackie Siow, the 2008 MNC Overall Champion and now driving for Team ORCA and Xray. The weather is as usual, not too sunny in the morning and all racers were hoping that the weather would hold up long enough to be able to complete the full race distance as there was a tendency to rain in the afternoon in Malaysia. The first qualifying saw Azri, Jackie and Norazam finished the qualifying in those positions and as the weather got better, the sun came out and warrmed the track slightly and thus prevented any of the drivers to better their times in later rounds.
Starting Grid for Final:
1. Azri Amri
2. Jackiw Siow
3. Norazam
4. M Shah
5. Ismail Ibrahim
6. Michael Lo

Leg 1 of the final saw Azri lead from pole taking the fastest lap of the leg for the win with Jackie a close second and M Shah taking 3rd. Leg 2 was a change of luck for Jackie as he went on to take the win for Leg 2 and clocking the fastest lap of the leg of 14.648 beating even the fastest lap that was set by Azri in Leg 1 and seeing Norazam taking 2nd and Azri coming in a close 3rd. The battle field is set as Azri and Jackie each took a leg and Norazam desperately trying to get in touch with the two front runners. Leg 3 was the most exciting race by far as the two Team ORCA drivers were running neck and neck for the entire race distance. Although Jackie was able to up his pace and set the fastest lap of the leg, he was restricted to show his full potential as Azri took each corner as tight as he could thus blocking Jackie’s continuous attacks. In the end both drivers crossed the line with Jackie 0.380sec behind Azri and Norazam finishing in 3rd, 1 lap behind the duo.
