5 of the most interesting contenders for RC4WD EuroCrawl 2024 Pro class - Part 1:



#5 João Guerreiro 🇵🇹

The 2023 World Championship third place finisher in Pro class, João Guerreiro is definately on our list. Fresh winner from 2024 Sudics in France this man in definately on top of his game at the moment. Years of development of his Pro chassis and setup is paying off big time! 👊 Expect this guy to be on top of the score boards as we head in Italy for EuroCrawl. 😎

5 of the most interesting contenders for RC4WD EuroCrawl 2024 Pro class - Part 2:



#2 Samu Sarka 🇫🇮

Second driver on this list is previous World, European, Nordics and Sudics Champion Samu Sarka. 😎 For two consecutive times he has been second in the hunt for Pro European Champion title. Now the old two time European Champion rig is operating again and the champ will return hungrier than ever before! 🤩 With more contenders than ever before the job is definately not easy but he is not going down without a fight in RC4WD EuroCrawl 2024!

[Zarizi Tech]

5 of the most interesting contenders for RC4WD EuroCrawl 2024 Pro class - Part 3:



#1 Karl Berger 🇦🇹

After his dominant performance in Finland two years ago this man can't be forgotten from this list. Austria's finest - Karl Berger! 😎 Defending European Champion is ready to do it all again in Italy. Even with less competing on this season this is the man to watch. 😉 Will the multiple class entry have an effect on his level or will he still be as brilliant as he was two years ago? We will know in two weeks time! 👊

[Zarizi Tech]

5 of the most interesting contenders for RC4WD EuroCrawl 2024 Pro class - Part 4:



#4 Danny Slinger 🇦🇹

The next serious conteder for the championship title comes from Austria as well - Danny Slinger! 😎 This man was driving like a man possessed in 2023 Worlds in USA ending up on 7th with a very high level drivers involved. 🤩 4th last time in EuroCrawl and 4th in 2023 Sudics. The consistency of Danny is hard to match. Will he be able to take another step and be the next European Champion? Soon it's about time to find out! 😉

#9 Patrice Bagnol 🇨🇵

A man who has been on this list every time is there again for a reason - Patrice Bagnol! Fresh from winning The 2024 RC Crawling Nordics in Finland he is surely fighting for the top honours in Italy. 👊 Pat has also driven in Montegrino Valtravaglia for a couple of occasions and has won there before so knowing the terrain will definately be on his side on a quest to win his first European Champion title! Ready to see how it turns out? Yes! 🤩

NO OFF COURSE REPAIRS IN RC4WD EuroCrawl 2024 ⚠️

Due to the extreme number of drivers and tight schedule in 2024 EuroCrawl ERCCA Committee has decided that only ON COURSE repairs are allowed in the event. If you brake something that needs to be fixed, you will have to do it while time is running. When you are ready time is stopped and you will continue from the previous progressed gate. +10 point penalty will be given.

So, a few things to consider before the event. As you can see from this video you can make a plan with your fellow countrymen and help each other in these situaions.

Also,
- Make sure your rigs can last a course without braking. Look at the nuts and bolts that they are tightened.
- Make sure that your battery is properly secured to the rig. It is very common to see battery hanging out from the rig.
- Prepare a little bag with most common tools and spares somewhere close to the course so you can quickly get them if needed.

With good preparation you should be all fine. 😉

Ps. The Off Course repair button is not visible in crawlerresults while we are driving EuroCrawl so people won't get it mixed.

TECH AND REGISTRATION AT RC4WD EuroCrawl 2024 ⚠️



Before the event all of the drivers have to go through the tech and official registration. We will have a pre tech on Wednesday the 18th and 3PM on the comp site. We hope everyone who are present will use this opportunity on Wednesday. 👍 It'll save a lot of time and trouble from the competition mornings.

Schedule for the tech:

Wednesday: 3PM --> to at least 7PM (longer if there are new drivers for the tech) (All classes)

Thursday: 7AM to 8AM (Mini and Super)
2.40PM to 5.10PM (Super)

Friday: 7AM to 9AM (All classes)

When you come to tech, first you tell your name and one of us will give you your competition numbers, possible T-Shirts and a sponsorship bag from our amazing supporters. 😎 In the mean time another member of our group will measure your rigs and tech them.

Then you will proceed to the next table where you will have to show your ID for us to activate an isurance for you for the event. This will only take a short while.

Then you continue in front of our photographer who will take a picture of you with the sponsorship goodies you received in front of the competition banner. 😉

Three simple steps and you'll be ready for the competition! If you are not in the tech line 15min before the tech time runs out, you are not in the competition either. We can't afford to wait for anyone‼️

COURSE BUILDERS/GROUP LEADERS AND COURSE INSPECTORS OF RC4WD EuroCrawl 2024 ‼️



Here you can find the course builders of the 2024 EuroCrawl. They are same time the group leaders for the class in question. Responsibilites are shared even so no one has to do it twice during the weekend. 👍 You can take as many helpers to course building as you want.

Under the line are the course inspectors. They will make sure that all gates are possible and at least driveable with a gate marker. So straddle on all gates except for bonus gates should be possible. They also make sure that all the gates and boundaries are marked clear and arrows for direction of the gates is marked on the rocks.

Thank you for the co operation everyone! 😎 5 DAYS TO GO!
