The 3rd round of Xray Racing Series Slovakia was held at the Hudy Racing Arena in Trencin, Slovakia this past weekend. The event kicked off with free practice on Friday with three qualifiers and triple mains being held on Saturday. In 2WD Modified Buggy it was Max Götzl with the TQ in round 1 in front of Martin Bayer and Antonia Kovalzski while in round 2 it was Matus Benetin and Antonia Kovalzski in 2nd and 3rd respectively while Max scored another TQ. Martin Bayer would strike back in Q3 with a 0.9 seconds faster time which handed him the overall TQ from Max in 2nd and Ales Bidovsky in 3rd.

In 4WD Modified Buggy Martin took the TQ in Q1, but Max managed to take Q2 and Q3 with faster times to start from pole position, as Martin came in 2nd and Ales again in 3rd.

Matus Benetin took the 3rd place for now. In A2 it was very easy for Martin, as Max made some mistakes which allowed Bayer to shift into cruise control to take the win as Max had a nice battle with Matus in the final two laps, but Götzl secured the 2nd position from Matus in 3rd. In A3 Max managed to take the lead in front of Martin, as the latter crashed once, and Götzl was able to hold on to his lead and take the overall win in the end. Martin came in 2nd and Matus completed the podium in 3rd for an all-Xray 1-2-3.

In the 4WD finals Max was able to take the advantage of his TQ and would take wins in all three finals for the overall victory. Martin Bayer finished in 2nd overall while and Matus completed the podium for another all-Xray top 3 result.

Hudy have intended their new professional 17mm bulkhead alignment tool for the Xray T4 2020 touring car. The alignment tool is placed between the left and right bulkhead using the included steel shafts. With the block and pins in place the driver can loosen and retighten both the lower bulkhead mounting screws and also the upper clamps and shock towers for perfect alignment of all parts. After all the parts are straightened up, the pins and block will be removed, the diff or spool installed and the bulkhead upper clamps installed. The result is a more efficiently running drivetrain and thus overall improved performance while countering chassis tweak. The tool is machined from aluminium and it comes black anodised for looks and wear.

Team Zombie have introduced their new Evo 540-size brushless motor. It features a unique 1-piece aluminium can that covers most of the stator, however it leaves open the large alloy insulator which ensures improved overall cooling. The endbell also sports cooling openings to further improve airflow through the can especially when used in 4WD off-road classes. A new stator design optimised the power curve, making it more linear which is essential for a more connected throttle feeling. The motor weighs in at around 150g, making it not the lightest, however with modern mid-motor touring cars being in need of weight in around the electronics area, it allows to achieve a balanced weight bias easier. Other features include 2mm thick ultra-low resistance solder tabs as well as high-precision ball bearings. The motor will become available in popular stock windings such as 13.5T and 17.5T.
