<\/a><\/p>\nWith rain during the Sunday, Rob had to find a good strategy to win the race, with the help of his dutch teammates Richard and Ronald Arts. Finally, Rob won the race, Stefan Rommens from Belgium finished 5th, Ronald Arts 6th and Richard Arts 9th; all the four Team Magic cars in the A-main. Great job guys !<\/p>\n

Original report from Rob Janssen:<\/strong><\/p>\n Last weekend we had our fourth round of Nationals here in the Netherlands.\u00a0Again lot of people attended the race, this time way up north in Groningen.\u00a0Some people took the camper or caravan out, I did spend the night nearby in a hotel.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n Last time I was there the track was extremely bumpy.\u00a0The club managed to do something about that by sanding down the circuit, mostly on the places were the bumps were the worst.\u00a0This resulted in a little more flat circuit, but with extreme low grip. But of course, for everybody the same. We had to deal with it.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n On Saturday morning the track was wet when we arrived so we couldn\u2019t start with practice.\u00a0Later that day the track dried so eventually we could take our cars out to the circuit for some laps.\u00a0In the low grip situation it was hard to find a good set-up and together with Richard and Ronald we tried many thing and combined the best working things.\u00a0At the end of the day I was pleased with the handling of the car and when looking to the timesheets I noticed I was able to do some of the best times.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n Sunday night a lot of rain did hit the track so all grip was gone again on Sunday morning. Local drivers seemed to manage the situation the best as local driver Sybrand de Boer did top Q1 with a 12 second lead over the rest.\u00a0In Q2 again Sybrand was on top of the list but I managed to close the gap to 2 seconds now.\u00a0With this in mind the confidence grow a little to believe in maybe a first place at the end of the day!\u00a0<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n In Q3 Richard was the surprise. He did hear something in the pit area about the additive combination that seemed to work best there.\u00a0It really did worked as he was able to finish in front of me that run.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n For the first final I did try the same strategy as Richard and it really worked.\u00a0I was able to stay really close to Sybrand in the first few laps and felt needing to hold back a little to prevent a collision.\u00a0When I felt it might be possible to make a move soon it started to rain a little and the grip on the track immediately was gone.\u00a0We all together did slip off track at the end of the straight and the marshal there had a busy job putting us all back on track.\u00a0Now it was down to who was able to manage this situation the best. I soon found out off the racing line the grip was the best and started to do some weird racing Lines to see but it did worked as i pulled away from the field quickly. It took a while before others found out the same.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n In final 2 it was completely wet. I did put my rain electrics in the car and rain tires on.\u00a0Not everybody did this, but there 5 cars on the track in the rain. My car seemed to work the best with again the strategy to not drive the racing line, but a little next to it.\u00a0So with 2 wins the day win was secured. But for the overall season standing every final does count so I prepared to do final 3.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n This one also was a wet one, but again the car and electrics did work great and I was able to make this an easy one and also won this run.\u00a0With 3 wins this weekend I did a good job in improving my lead in the season standing in front of Sybrand.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n Overall results:<\/strong> Even if the E4RS III Plus is going to be replaced by the all-new E4RS4, it is still able to win races again and again, like last week-end with Rob Janssen in Netherlands for the round 4 of Dutch Nationals. … Continue reading ![\"Rob](\"http:\/\/blog.hrcdistribution.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/IMG_7098.jpg\" "\\"Rob")
