This week RTFR hosted one of few S1 licenced races,using the demo car which is also the "easiest" single seater in the streets of South City. But the track was not one of the easier ones as it featured the famous narrow chicane,where a slight lapse of concentration would lead to crash,with few others closely following - even to multiple car crash. Rest of the track was rather an opportunity for drafting passes.
The winningest driver in RTFR history Botsi returned after 5 events break and added another achievement straight away - he started from outside of front row and made a pass for lead after 3 laps of racing. The pass was a bit questionable,but since the "victim" never complained,we can assume it was ok - Botsi led remaining 26 laps and held himself ahead of competition to score his 35th racewin and also his 63rd top5 finish. Litti finished just over a second behind the winner and scored his 12th top5 finish in RTFR,setting also his 9th fastest lap of the race. Mandula was the "best of the rest" by finishing 3rd behind the strong S1dus duo and scored his 21st top5 finish,followed by rating and standings leader R.Kardol,who scored few points gain over his main rival - 4th place for him and the 3-way 47 top5 finishes tie for 3rd most top5 finishes is broken as he alone scored the 48th. Fatass closed up the top5 and added the 3rd top5 finish in his stats.

Now in next 2 weeks RTFR will feature relatively similar combos in upcoming races,but despite cars being in same class and tracks both using the tarmac of Kyoto,there are only few options to make races even more different. RTFR XL next week will be run with RAC on Kyoto GP Long reversed - more info on that will be posted during this evening. And next normal RTFR will be run with other LRF class car on other Kyoto configuration - more info on that you can find out when watching stream. Or waiting for info in the weekend before the actual event. And note the UTC time change for next events - the area where RGE is hosted turns clocks back to winter time this weekend,so we adjust the UTC time to keep events here on same time!
