Ellis Stafford dominated qualifying with his XFactory car but the finals were much more open - with different winners in all three legs. Tom Cockerill took the final leg and his 1st and 2nd place finish were enough to give him overall victory whilst Schumacher team-mate Simon Moss on equal points but two 2nd place finishes counting had to settle for second. Lee Martin put his Tamiya TRF201X into third after winning the opening leg.

Ellis Stafford had to settle for 5th in the end after his domination of qualifying and winning the middle leg of the A final.

Full report coming to oOple.com soon - watch this space.

If they do, I'm going to demand a year supply of tires. They never touched their staggers untill they came to Kampenhout. :woot:

Nice Job, TC :thumbsup:

Nah. He thought Steenari was. But I think even Laurent Borremans was before him. They were the 1st of the fast guys to do it.

But before then we started messing staggers up the first year we came to the GP, like proper Dutchies.... to get more life out of worn sets. These ended up having asmuch / more grip than new tires. It went from bad to worse from there.... :blush:
But no one really noticed it at 1st since all the Dutch guys were somewhere in the Z-main back then.
