Rain delays proceedings

The arrival of heavy rain over the town of Slavkov u Brna in the Czech Republic has forced Astra Nitro Cross race officials to delay the start of the Semi finals by at least an hour. Having ran most of the lower finals in slightly damp conditions the weather took a major turn just ahead of the scheduled Semi practice sessions resulting in none of the Top 16 qualifiers taking to the drenched clay track. A slight break in the weather and the spreading of saw dust allowed for the Quarter finals to be run with the 1/4 A drivers having to endure a very wet final few laps of racing after which the call was made to delay proceedings in the hope of a further clearing of the rain.

After the recent ISTC World Championships in California, Red RC gets ready to switches from electric power to nitro power as well as travel to the other side of the World to bring you coverage of the 10th edition of the IFMAR 1:10 Nitro World Championship. With support from Maxima RC Racing Fuel, T-Work’s Asia, Rapicon Max Power RC Fuel, SMART-Workshop, and Infinity, we are excited to be returning to Huge RC Circuit in Bangkok, Thailand, the track of former ISTC World Champion Suirkan Chaidajsuriya hosting the WC for a second time. In 2014 we got to witness Alexander Hagberg claim his first & Xray’s second World title at this unique (and huge!) indoor track. With 2024 a year that we have already seen two historic World title hat tricks, will we see Infinity’s Tadahiko Sahashi become the first ever driver to defend their 1:10 Nitro title? Our coverage starts on November 19 (Tuesday) and runs through to Saturday’s title deciding 1-hour final. We looking forward to you following along as IFMAR crowns its final World Champion of 2024.
