For the 2nd time in RTFR XL there was a rallycross race,this time it was with the slower LX car and the race was way more attended - 4 times more drivers qualified for this race than last time,5 times more starters were on the grid. However the atrition in this race was much higher - just 16 drivers of 30 starters were classified as finishers,setting the all time 2nd worst finishing rate in RTFR XL with 53.3%. What's most ironic from this race - the selector of 1st rallycross combo did not join the race back then,however he did this time and won the race.

R.Kardol started from the outside of 3 cars wide front row and took the race lead in 2nd lap to set his sights on race win as he was constantly pulling away from competition,giving up his lead only during pitstops phase - on the way to his 8th RTFR XL race win,the dutchman scored also his 7th fastest lap of the race,becoming the sole 2nd position in most fastest laps chart,he also rounded up his top5 count to 30. Despite starting from pole position,Unite did not led a single lap in this race and finished as runner up 25 seconds behind his teammate,still it was his 2nd pole position and 15th top5 finish. Fatal finished 3rd and scored his 4th top5 finish this year in 5 races,5th top5 overall. The only other laps leader Arska finished 4th,losing 2 positions between start and finish,that's his 6th top5 finish and best result of this year,he also becomes 48th driver to lead a lap in RTFR XL history. Top5 was closed by Spirts,who started his 2nd race in the series and greatly improved his previous best finish 11th.

* FUN FACT OF THE MONTH :
Despite driving the slower LX car on 2nd rallycross race,the average speed was higher than in the LX6 rallycross race - slightly above 104km/h,whole LX6 at Fern Bay's rallycross race reached just 98km/h. Obviously the faster turns of Blackwood made the difference.

* CLOCK PITTER OF THE RACE :
This time the race organizer himself put his name in this paragraph with a 10.22 seconds short work free pitstop. There was an even shorted work free pitstop,but Pitlaneracer wasn't classified in results as he retired early.

* FIELD RUSHER OF THE RACE :
Technically Gábor started 30th and gained a total of 14 positions during the race - best positions gain from all drivers,even if he retired from race.

VOD at Youtube:


The 66th RTFR XL will be a fast one - an almost 1000 horsepower car has been selected for the race. Formula RC11 is a replica of previous year's F1 car and features lot's of grip and speed. It will be raced on 3rd longest LFS standard track - Aston Grand Touring. A server for laptime testing will be set up after next normal RTFR next week - regarding that race,since there is no broadcast planned as it's a off-standings race,combo has not even been decided for it,but we'll follow the path and host a non-slick tyres cars race.
