Lithuania Nationals Rd. 4 Race Report by Danielius Staliunas

Our Team Driver Danielius Staliunas had a great weekend at Lithuanian nationals last weekend. Here's he's race report from the race.

Lithuania Nationals Rd. 4. What a race it was! Day pasted, still can not believe how amazingly we fought for podium places.

In 1/8 e-buggy I was able to take a TQ, but by a margins of a second. In A1 first three of us where driving not more in than in a two seconds. I managed to pull away a bit, but I was driving on the limit and Tadas in 2^nd place caught me after I did a small mistake, we were fighting until the end of the final, but as I was driving aggressively I didn’t manage my battery life and I run short of power and finished 2^nd. In A2 I was in the lead and never let it to anyone else, but 8 out of 10 minutes, I was fighting with Domantas, he was super fast, but I managed to defend and take the A2 final. In A3 I missed the starting tone, didn’t hear it, so I was already 3^rd, but I was in 1.5s gap to the lead. Tadas made a small mistake and I took 2^nd place. Was fighting with Domantas, he made a small mistake and I took the lead, but we were fighting even closer than in A2 final, but somehow I managed to make my car super wide and defended my place and finished in 1^st place which meant that I took the win in the class. 

TOP3:
1. Danielius S. Xray
2. Tadas B. Tekno
3. Domantas C. Losi

In 1/10 4wd class in qualifying runs I was driving amazingly, almost a 1s faster than a 2^nd place and got a confident TQ. In finals I got a bit unlucky, in A1 I made a mistake at the start and got passed by Dominykas, I caught him in a few laps, bet when I saw “the door open” and tried to overtake, he closed the gap, I had nowhere to go and went into a pipe and waited for marshal, still managed to finish 2^nd. In A2 I was leading, but not much and my rear tire exploded ( divided into two parts in the middle of the tire), I was driving on 3 tires and did not had the pace to hold Dominykas in 2^nd, so I finished 2^nd. I took 2^nd overall which is still very good position and good result. In this class my brother finished 3rd with his Xray XB4'21. 

TOP3:
1. Dominykas E. Xray
2. Danielius S. Xray
3. Kasparas S. Xray

My both Xray XB4'21 and XB8e'19 were amazing to drive all day long. Big thank You for EuroRc for the support and help!
See you in the last round on October 9th !
