Defending Champion David Ronnefalk is Top Qualifier at the 1:8 Offroad
European Championships. The Kyosho driver claimed the honour with a
third convincing TQ run in the penultimate round of qualifying at the
Sand am Main event in Germany this morning. Again the only driver to
run a 27-second lap time, the Swede took the round 3.1-seconds up on
Mugen’s Robert Batlle with Koysho team-mate Elliott Boots backing up his
Q3 performance with another Top 3 time.

Describing the traffic as an ‘absolute nightmare’, Boots said other than
that it was a good run. Having struggled in the opening two
qualifiers, mainly due to his style of driving, he said having backed it
off a little together with little improvements to his Reds Racing
powered MP9 he feels he is now ‘there or there abouts’ in terms of
overall pace. Switching from Pro-Line’s Blockade to Suburb tyre in X2
compound for Q4 he said the change worked well and he will continue with
everything as is for his final heat. With only two good rounds to his
credit the British driver is conscious that he needs another strong
round so cant afford to take many risks.
