Japanese 1:8 nitro on-road expert Hiromu Fujii has the honor of being the first ever winner of an official 1:8 nitro Nascar truck event in VRC Pro.

Fujii dominated the 15 minute A-Main final from start to finish with an average race pace just 0.25 sec per lap slower than his fastest lap in the race. 2014 VRC World Champ 1:10 Rick Yelle posted a strong 2nd but couldn't present a threat to the young Japanese. UK's Graham Raistrick took the last podium place holding off Brian Poliseno from Italy who crashed on the finish line in an all-out attempt to cross the line before time was over to try to pass Raistrick in the very last lap. He did but lost too much time and had to settle for 4th.

Another great addition to the on-road track collection: Atsugi 05, an older track lay-out at the Kyosho headquarters in Atsugi, Japan. A small track perfectly suited for all 1:10 and 1:12 racing. Races are planned for this new track starting with 2015 Season 1 Round 5 for 1:12 modified sportscars. Enjoy some very close racing on this track!

Austrian VRC World Champion and official Team Xray factory driver Martin Wollanka has won the first round of the short course truck season at Mikes 3.

Except for the first 2 laps when he had to settle behind Nicolas Loriot from France who took the wholeshot at the start, Wollanka lead the entire race with a comfortable cusion between him and the hard pressing Loriot, Hofer and Fritschler. Patrick Hofer drove a strong race and looked to be heading for a sure 2nd but a misjudgment on the back straight double cost him even his podium place.
