Enfin, un rallye complet de terminé en 2018!
Nicolas et Vincent ont réussi à prendre la 5e place toute catégorie et à remporter la classe production du Rallye Défi 2018. Après avoir eu quelques problèmes de mécaniques, l’équipe a procédé à des réparations temporaires en espérant que les soudures retiennent une pièce de suspension au chassis jusqu’à la fin du rallye. Nos Hoosier Racing Tire ont été super en fin de semaine; Aucune crevaison comparativement à 5 l’an dernier, où nous utilisions des pneus d’une autre marque.
Finally we completed a full length rally in 2018! Nicolas & Vincent finished 5th overall and first in production class! We had a couple of problems but we repaired during service and we were able to make it to the end! Thanks to our Hoosier Tires, we were able to make all the rally without one flat compared to 5 last year at this event with another brand of tires.
Un gros merci à tous nos fans, notre équipe, l’organisation et bien sur nos super commanditaires! / Big thanks to our fans, amazing team and our great sponsors!
