Report from our Austrian distributor about the 1/8 GTE Championship.
Details
An incredible season came to an end yesterday with a second-place finish.
My Serpent SRX8GTe-R was once again on point. I had a fierce battle for TQ with Znideric Nick, though unfortunately, he took the top spot. In the first final, I unfortunately ran into electronics issues but managed to fight my way through A1.
In A2, I made too many small errors, resulting in a P2 finish. In the final race, I managed to secure P1 after Nick made a major mistake, giving me P2 in the day's overall standings. It is also worth mentioning that Nick and I tied for the fastest lap of the weekend down to the thousandth of a second with a time of 15.388.
It was a great battle with him.
In the season standings (based on four races with one dropped result), I secured the Austrian Championship title thanks to three TQ finishes, two wins, and two second place finishes.
I would like to take this opportunity to express my heartfelt thanks to my wife Nicole Neumaier without here none of this would be possible and to all my supporters.
Special thanks go to Modellsport Trinko for supporting me far beyond my expectations. Thank you!!!
I’m already looking forward to 2027 and hope to build on the success of 2026.
