Lee Martin took the second leg of the A final here in Austria at the 2010 10th off road European Championships to go along with his win in the opening leg to win the 4WD title in the same manner as his win earlier this week in 2WD.

In a damp rain-effected meeting, Lee Martin won the only two qualifiers that managed to run to completion to TQ the event. Only Jorn Neumann was able to challenge Lee Martin in both legs 1 & 2 of the A final but wasn't able to make a pass or be as consistent - making errors that cost him time.

Congratulations to Lee Martin from oOple.com on his domination of the 2010 Euros.

Congratulations from Sweden!

Excellent not "only" to win 2WD but also 4WD in the same event! So, time to start practising for Finland? :D

As a Tamiya fan, it was also great to see Marc finish third and Swedish driver Viktor in sixth place.

Hey dude - well done is obviously an understatement!!!!!
Very happy for you and your family mate (ESPECIALLY Pete)....if they all knew this now at Newbury school and at Planet Hampshire eh!!!! - Nick G knows what i mean :)

I asked Craig Dresher at the weekend if he knew how many people done the double at the Euros.
As far as he and I remember, it is only Craig and Neil that have done it.
I think the year Jukka won 2wd it was Craig that won 4wd.....so.....either way there are not many that have done the double dude so well done again.....
oh!! and you was all bling bling as well :))

Definitely, i was there at the Clere school the first time Lee appeared at Racing, with one jean leg rolled up - He thought he was Gangsta even back then :thumbsup:

It's so good to see though, and i can only imagine how proud Pete was!

Great stuff

Yeah I remember when I could beat Lee, look where he is now! I think Tony E noticed something in him, and could see his potential talent even then...
Congrats Lee on your double! :thumbsup:
