    A quick report for you from last weekend.

    Day One

    Iarrived at the awesome facility in Italy, near Venice, called IBR Padova, which was to host the World Indoor Race with a lot of top drivers from around the world attending and quite a few drivers from the US so it was going to be a really good race.  I started a practice where I was also running E-Buggy so I knew I would have plenty of track time as a lot of local drivers had spent a long time on this track it would always be a challenge to beat some of these fast Italian drivers.  The day was spent mainly trying different setups on the car and also tyres as since I was here last the track has be re-designed and was really great to drive with all the normal fantastic facilities around - thanks to Nicola.

    Qualifying

    There were to be 5 rounds of qualifying for both classes with 3 rounds to count so there would be plenty of track time for me.  I was working hard on the car as the track was quite slick at some parts of the day and I found my car would feel the best towards the end of the day.  I was also trying different tyres and I found at this point my car was best on Proline Suburbs M4 compound.  I had also tried Holeshot M4 compound which I found were better in the morning than in the afternoon.  I had a good qualifying and got the car feeling really good.  I was able to TQ in Round 3 with a really quick time and the qualifying was very close so I was able to qualify 4th overall which I was happy with as I knew in the final the Kyosho MP9 would be really good.

    Semi Final

    I started 2nd on the grid for the Semi, again the Kyosho MP9 was feeling great and I was also trying some different tyres - I opted for the Proline Fugitive M4.  My Reds R7 engine was running really well with running the new Gen 2 Venturi, which gave me lots of torque and power which enabled me to finish the Semi and qualify for the Main A Final.

    Main A Final

    With a strong Semi Final I was able to put my Kyosho MP9 TKI3 second on the grid, missing out on Pole by a few seconds so this is going to be a really exciting final.  I decided to opt for my Proline Fugitive M4 tyres, which I know give me the grip I need for the hour long final.  I was able to make a good clean start and within a few laps was able to take the lead and was able to start to pull away from the chasing pack. I would carry on with the lead for a good 25 minutes now with a comfortable lead but unfortunately my car stopped just before I was due to come in for fuel.  This was a great shame because I was now going to be a couple of laps down once the car had recovered, once we re-fuelled the car ran perfect till the end.

    I will be back here in January for the Italian Job Race, hopefully with a bit more luck and with this weekend racing in Madrid at the Buggyland Race.  I would just like to say thanks to all my sponsors for all their conti
