The 8th edition of the Petit Race was held in Dortmund, Germany. It was part of the biggest Toy Fair in Europe with 88,000 consumers over 5 days. The track was really nice and flowing with many jumps. Drivers from Germany, Belgium, France, Netherlands, Denmark, Sweden and Poland made the trip to Dortmund. The race started with free practice on Friday until 2pm, followed by 2 Rounds of controlled practice for each of the 4 classes. Pro-Line Driver Jörn Neumann was able to dominate from the beginning setting the pace in all 3 classes he entered. Saturday was 2WD qualifying and finals. 4 Rounds of FTD qualifying and triple A-mains. Jörn again set the pace in each Round. The triple A-mains had a different format and where now 7min long instead of 5min qualifying. Jörn was able to check out in A1 and A2 to win his first championship for the weekend.

On Sunday it was 4WD and 4WD Short Course time. Again FTD qualifying in 4WD, but not in 4WD Short Course. 4WD Short Course was in “Reedy Race style modus” with only finals (7 Rounds), lined up in Motorcross start all the time. In 4WD Buggy the same persons made the show as in 2WD, Jörn again set the pace in each qualifying followed by Christopher Krapp in 2nd. The finals showed again the amazing speed of Jörn as he again easily won A1 and A2 to wrap up his 2nd championship for the weekend.
