Chilly last outdoor weekend with hot action on the Mini Circuit “Ville de Luxembourg”
The outdoor season of the Euro Touring Series is in the books after four amazing events. But as the overall Season #15 2022/23 is not over (indoor races to come), we like to analyse the outdoor portion of our campaign in this recap article together with the results from Luxembourg. It was one of the colder outdoor events with temperatures between 4 degrees in the morning and 18 degrees in the afternoon, and luckily the rain was always circulating to different areas around the track, and we only saw some raindrops on Saturday morning. The LMCC Luxembourg was a perfect host for us, and we like to thank everybody who was involved in making this great weekend possible!

Matrix Modified
Krapp and Rheinard tied on points with Prümper and Völker still in striking distance
The Matrix Modified is our premier class at the ETS and almost every world class driver was in attendance during the season. It was very special to see (and the first time in the history of the ETS), that four different drivers took the wins in the first four races of the series. With Yannic Prümper (Yokomo), Christopher Krapp (Yokomo), Marc Rheinard (Awesomatix), and Lucas Urbain (Awesomatix) taking one win each, the championship is as thrilling as never before. Ronald Völker (Mugen Seiki) hasn`t won a race yes but is also in the overall mix for the championship with a 2nd and two 3rd positions to his favour.
Actual top 5 in the Matrix Modified Championship (points/wins)
The team with the biggest improvement, two victories, and two drivers in the hunt for the overall championship
Especially for Yokomo and their BD11 car, the outdoor season was a huge success. Krapp and Prümper won the first two races of the season and both drivers scored multiple podium finishes with the latest touring car platform from the Japanese manufacturer. We are looking forward to seeing them racing on carpet with their car and they will try everything to win the first ETS title for Yokomo which is not coming from the hands of Ronald Völker. Krapp and Prümper are in a great form right now and after Krapp finished second at the 2022 IFMAR world championships in Gubbio, everybody is expecting even more from him and his team in the upcoming races now. Krapp is leading the championship (tied on points with Rheinard) and everything is prepared for a strong outcome of the season for the Yokomo team.
Championship chance for Yokomo: 75%
With Prümper (RD1 win) and Krapp (RD2 TQ and win), Yokomo has two horses in the race for the overall championship. Both drivers are normally performing stronger on Asphalt, but had good carpet results in the past as well. What will happen if they have to fight for the overall championship against each other? Nobody knows… But Yokomo is the hottest contender for the title in the Matrix Modified class going into the last two races of the campaign!
Awesomatix
Two victories for the team and Rheinard leading the championship ahead of carpet season
The Awesomatix team also saw two drivers taking race wins during RD3 and RD4. Marc Rheinard won the race in his hometown Andernach (Arena33), and Lucas Urbain achieved the same on his home track in Luxembourg (even if Lucas is living in France). After a first and second place in the last two races, Rheinard has brought himself back into the championship hunt after kind of a slow start into the season for the multiple IFMAR world champion.
Rheinard is a very good carpet racer and it wouldn`t surprise us to see him lift the overall championship trophy at the end of the season. It would be Rheinard`s second ETS title, after he only won it in the third season of the Euro Touring Series in 2009/10 – a very long time ago…! Now he is tied on points with Krapp (both 901), and Rheinard, as well as his teammates Urbain and Manzo will be well prepared for the start of the indoor season. They will fight for the highest possible finish of ETS Season #15.
Championship chance for Awesomatix: 60%
Rheinard is the hot iron for the title and he comes along with a lot of experience. His hunger for the ETS title must be very big after winning it for the last time in 2010 (!). In the last races he was clearly on an upward trend and has already one TQ and win to his favour (RD3). He performed very well at the last carpet races and Awesomatix has a serious shot for a very first ETS title in the Modified class.
Mugen Seiki
Wanted – Völker and Mugen Seiki aiming for first win of ETS Season #15
Mugen Seiki`s Ronald Völker is still the reigning champion of the Matrix Modified class. He won the title last season in a dominant way, and it was a perfect start for him and his current chassis sponsor Mugen Seiki. This season started good as well, with a TQ and 2nd overall in the Netherlands. After a third place at RD3 in Austria, Völker had his lowest finish with a fourth place in Germany before he stepped on the podium again with finishing third in Luxembourg.
Very constant top 4 results from Völker, just missing a win until now. But as Völker is one of the best carpet racers out there, he will be one to watch when the ETS will roll out the black carpet for the last two races of the season. Can Völker win his eight (!) ETS title in the Modified class? His team around the top drivers Robert Pietsch, Eric Dankel, and Remí Callens will be there to support the ETS record champion to the end of the season!
Championship chance for Mugen Seiki: 50%
Mugen Seiki`s Ronald Völker has not won a race this season, but he is still in the fight for the overall championship as he scored top 4 finishes in all four races of Season #15 so far. He was able to TQ at RD1, and only missed the podium once (RD3). As Völker is a real “master of carpet racing”, Mugen Seiki still has a chance to defend the title which Völker won in thelast season for the Japanese manufacturer. But they will need at minimum one TQ and win (better two wins) to make it happen. Let`s see what wil happen at the next race in Hann. Münden.
[the_ad_group id=”143″]
Xray
Xray wins IFMAR Touring Car World Championship in Italy and no ETS race in 2022
The Xray team was not in attendance in the Matrix Modified class with their lead drivers Alexander Hagberg and Bruno Coelho this season. Bruno celebrated a very impressive win at the 2022 IFMAR worlds in Gubbio with the Xray X4, but at the ETS the car didn`t make it onto the podium without them. However, they had some other fast drivers on the line at some of the races, but nobody was doing the whole ETS campaing. Because of that, the championship title is not in reach for Xray this season and Bruno Coelho will remain the only driver winning this title for the Slovakian manufacturer.
Marco Kaufmann, Jan Ratheisky, and Olivier Havranek were flying the flag for Xray, and they had some strong single race results at tracks like Aigen-Schlägl, Andernach, and Luxembourg. Let`s see what the indoor season will bring for Xray. A lot of drivers in the pits are missing the competition with Hagberg and Coelho and would really like to have them racing at the ETS again.
Schumacher
When we are talking about Schumacher there is one name in our mind: Michal Orlowski. He was once again the only top drover with the current Schumacher MI8 touring car at the ETS and he delivered a good result at his only appearance at Arena33 in Andernach. Not sure if we will see him at the indoor races but we hope so!
Axon
Another small team which was attending one race of the season in Austria (Aigen-Schlägl). And what a great show it was from Akio Sobue and Jayato ishioka putting both Axon touring cars into the A-Main. We have heard that Axon plans to attend some ETS races next season and we are looking forward to welcome them again in our ETS family!
Awesomatix Pro Stock
Lauter and Mächler battling it out as overall title is safe for Awesomatix
The Awesomatix Pro Stock class has evaluated into a fight between the two Awesomatix drivers Max Mächler and Simon Lauter. Coming into the season, Max had a perfect start as he won the race in Apeldoorn in a dominant way. Simon Lauter fought back at RD2 in Aigen-Schlägl before it was Mächler again with a win at Arena33, a track that was not one of his favourites at this time. Simon Lauter was right back to the point with his second win of the season in Luxembourg what means that only two drivers have taken race wins in the Pro Stock class this season so far. The decision for the title will come down to the line between these two drivers on carpet now and it is impossible to pick a favourite as both are in a great form.
Championship chance for Awesomatix: 100%
But no matter what will happen at RD5 and RD6, the title will go to Awesomatix for sure as no driver from any other team is able to jump into the battle in the two remaining rounds of ETS racing. Awesomatix has established themselves as the dominant force in this class, especially after Xray driver Alexandre Duchet is not racing at the ETS anymore since last December. He (together with Jan Ratheisky and Lukas Ellerbrock) was the hardest contender of the “Awesomatix gang” in the last years. Ellerbrock has just announced his departure from Xray, and it will be all about Ratheisky to fight for at least one Xray race win in Hann. Münden or Daun.
Actual top 5 in the Awesomatix Pro Stock Championship (points/wins)
Schulz leads by one point from Olsen as ETS rolls out the black carpet
In the Hobbywing Frontwheel class, we will see another fight for the title between reigning champion Stefan Schulz (Xray), and his main challenger Steven Olsen (Awesomatix). Both drivers had been responsible for a very interesting last season in the FWD class and after Schulz missed the first race of the current season in Apeldoorn, he was back in the groove in the last three races of which he was able to TQ and win at least two. Olsen had a great start with winning the first race in the Netherlands while finishing third in Austria and second in Luxembourg. Both drivers had their lowest points score at Rd3 in Andernach where Schulz took P5 while Olsen only finished in P7.
Looking forward to carpet racing now, both drivers are running strong cars to get the job done. The Xray X4F and the Awesomatix A800FX Evo are great FWD cars and Schulz, and Olsen should have everything they need to do what is necessary for the championship. Maybe there is a little advantage for Schulz as he has the experience of already winning a title. On the other side, Steven Olsen is hunting the title for so long now and that should be more than enough motivation form him too.
Actual top 5 in the Hobbywing Frontwheel Championship (points/wins)
Only Stankowitz can deny second consecutive Masters title for Mateo
The ToniSport 40+ Masters class is in control of Toni Mateo (Awesomatix A800MMX). He took two race wins this season (Aigen and Luxembourg), and a second place at the season opener in Apeldoorn behind local hero Elibert Sievers. Toni Mateo is always looking strong, and he is a real racer on track and never giving up. Mateo showed great racing against his challengers Sievers, Thalheimer, and Manuel Stankowitz who is sitting second on the rankings now.
Stankowitz (Awesomatix A800MMX) is the only driver who has a serious chance to steal the title from Mateo in the last two races of the season, but he will need the best possible results to do so and at minimum one more race win. Let`s see who will be the champion of the ToniSport 40+ Masters class at the end of ETS Season #15 2022/23.
Actual top 5 in the ToniSport 40+ Masters class (points/wins)
Reile still 4 points ahead of Donath as indoor season kicks off
Dominik Reile is leading the championship after the outdoor portion of ETS Season #15 2022/23. Reile showed two very strong races at the beginning of the season where he was able to TQ and win in Apeldoorn and Aigen-Schlägl. The campaign looked like a walk in the park for Reile and we expected him to dominate. But everything changed at Arena33 in Andernach, where he somehow was not the best possible Dominik Reile with only finishing seventh overall. But as imperfect weekends are part of racing, Reile seemed to be back to business after he secured the pole position in Luxembourg. In the end he was not able to convert the pole into victory and dropped back to fourth place.
Jasmin Donath was the racer taking maximum advantage of Reile`s weak phase. She took her first ever ETS race win at Arena33 and finished third on the podium in every other race of the campaign – a very strong performance. Together with Reile, she has the chance to win the title as well, but it will need her to take two wins on carpet. Nothing is impossible in RC racing, and we are looking to a thrilling final of the season on the black ETS carpet. Kevin Schmid is sitting in third position after he also won his first ETS race this season in Luxembourg. Two race wins for Schmid can also bring him into the fight for the trophy.
Actual top 5 in the Orca 17.5 Stock Championship (points/wins)
Close battle to expect as Kölbel and Stiebler are tied on points with two races to go
In the Scorpion Formula class, Jan Ratheisky (Xray) took the win at the last two race in Andernach and Luxembourg. But as Ratheisky missed the first two races of the season he is not on top of the championship right now. Andreas Stiebler (Schumacher), René Kölbel (Xray), and Luka Jovicic (Libar Engineering) are on top right now and especially Kölbel and Stiebler will fight very hard to the end of the season to take the title of the Formula class.
As mentioned before, Ratheisky is only 15th now but that will change after the next race when he will have three results counting. He has the same chances (if not the best) to win the championship as he took maximum points away from his two races. Stiebler and Kölbel each having one win in the bag and the carpet portion of the season will be the decider for the overall championship in the Scorpion Formula class.

Next stop for the ETS is RD5 at the Trans World Hotel Auefeld in Hann. Münden, GER
The ETS circus will meet again from 25. – 27. November 2022 at the Trans World Hotel Auefeld in Hann. Münden. We are counting more than 260 entries right now and we can not wait to get the carpet season rollin.
A good start for Marc Rheinard into the carpet season as the German took the win at the Mon-Tech New York GP at the 360v2 RC raceway in New York (New Rochelle). On the technical high bite carpet racetrack, he qualified second on the grid behind super-fast US driver Sam Isaacs (Awesomatix), and right in front of Canadian top racer Keven Hebert (Xray). In the single A-Main final, Marc was able to capitalize from a small mistake of Isaac after one minute to get into the lead. After that, Keven Hebert was on Rheinard`s tail for the next 4 minutes but Marc was able to stand his ground and taking the win at the fourth annual New York GP. Keven Hebert (2nd) and Sam Isaacs (3rd) completed the podium.
Marc posted on his social media:
What a race… unfortunately Sam hit the curb and I could get by with Keven right behind me. Keven was on my tail for almost all 5min, but I could stay in front and took the win! Now it’s time for a few days of sightseeing in New York before heading back to Germany!
Marc Rheinard (DE) Awesomatix/Orca
Max Mächler and Thomas Bemmerl also made the trip to the US and raced at the New York GP. Max Mächler finished third overall in the Stock class, and fifth in Super Stock. Thomas Bemmerl finished 7th in Super Stock. Both were running their Awesomatix A800MMX cars.
Max Mächler posted on his facebook page:
A great weekend comming to an end. Thanks everyone here at 360v2 RC, New Rochelle, NY for the perfect orga. Always great to be around here with you guys! Well done Michael Hanulec, Donny Lia and Mike Goiricelaya. Now it‘s time for a few days in NewYork – the city that never sleeps!

today we reached the mark of 240 entries for the first indoor race of ETS Season #15 2022/23. We are really overwhelmed by this number as no other racing series in europe can show these figures right now! Now, we have to make sure that there will be enough pit space available to accept even more entries. You can still sign up for the race, but we will keep your entry on the waiting list until we are sure that we can create enough places in the pits.
So, if you place your entry now – it is not 100% guaranteed!
We will try everything we can to get all drivers in so stay tuned and don`t stop to place your entries as that will help us to get an even better feeling for the amount of space we need.
After our last ETS race in Luxembourg, Pro Stock top driver Lukas Ellerbrock announced his departure from long-term chassis sponsor Xray. Ellerbrock had a successfull stint with the Slovakian manufacturer over the last five years. He was able to establish himself in in the top group of Pro Stock drivers at the Euro Touring Series and had some amazing results with P3 in Apeldoorn (Season #14) being his best ETS carreer finish so far.
Lukas announced his departure on his social media after the Luxembourg ETS with the following statement:
I like to announce, that after more than 5 years this was my last race with XRAY. Huge thanks to Martin Hudy for all the support and help throughout the years, it was always nice to work together. A great time comes to an end but I am already excited for the next chapter!
Lukas Ellerbrock (DE)
Now, as the silly season is about to start, we are curious which team will snatch up Ellerbrock and his great driving skills. As soon as there is some daylight in the story we will let you know which chassis Lukas Ellerbrock will use very soon. We wish Lukas all the best for his future and we are sure that he will be on pace with his new team quickly!
Hanno van den Boogaard produced some nice video content during the ETS in Luxembourg . Enjoy some impressions and let us take you back to the action and experiences from ETS RD4 at the Mini Circuit “Ville de Luxembourg”. Once again, thanks to Hanno from RC Race Video! Enjoy the some highlights from ETS RD4 again:
The fifth round of the actual ETS Season #15 2022/23 will take place in the Trans World Hotel Auefeld in Hann. Münden, GER from 25th to 27th of November 2022. It is the first indoor race of the actual season and as we are going to a new location we are full of excitement and we hope for a huge turnout. From now on, we will work hard to create the best possible racing weekend for or ETS family. The RCCT Münden will be the club helping us with a lot of stuff and ETS RD5 should be a blast.
The registration for ETS RD5 in Hann. Münden is OPEN, just klick the link below:
Make sure to place your entry and don`t miss the chance to book one of the rooms in the Hotel we are racing in. Here you read our announcement with all information about the Hotel, the special ETS room arrangements, and the entry fee for ETS RD5:
with the very challenging times the world is facing with the cost of everything increasing especially heating and electricity at the hotel venues, it has been a struggle for us to find locations to host the indoor portion of the ETS Season. We are very happy and thankful to announce that we have been able to find a very nice venue to host our next event.
3-day event in the middle of Germany
ETS RD5 will take place in Hann. Münden, GER from 25th to 27th of November 2022. The city of Hann. Münden is located 200km north-east bound of Frankfurt (closest Airport), and is not far away from Göttingen where we hosted an EOS race at the beginning of the year. We will organize the event together with the RC Car Team Münden (RCCT Münden) around our well-known ETS racers Kevin and Sören Sparbier. They also had been a very important part of getting connected to the location where we will race and we like to thank them a lot for their effort.
ETS RD5 will take place in the Trans World Hotel Auefeld Hann. Münden, which is a wonderful place to stay. The Hotel features huge hall, which is normally in use for different events and conferences. We will built up a our carpet track in the sports hall and we are very excited to get the indoor side of the ETS rolling again.
As mentioned before, we will run ETS RD5 as a 3-day event. Many of you have asked for this over the past few months and we think this the perfect time to do it. The goal of moving the race to a 3 day event is to help control the cost needed for the ETS family to attend the race. We all know the cost of daily life has increased so much that our hope is this change helps everyone save some money as it is 1 less hotel day, 1 less day vacation and just less stress trying to make it possible for our family to attend the event.
Great offer for ETS racers in the Trans World Hotel Auefeld
The Hotel Auefeld is offering a special deal for all ETS racers. They arranged special prices including breakfast and dinner (Buffet). This is a fantastic deal for all of us to stay at the location of the race which makes it so easy to go to your room between heats and removes the stress of getting up early to drive to the track. They have also included breakfast and a dinner buffet with our special price which makes it the perfect setup for a hotel race. Our hope is that all of our racers will stay at the hotel to help support the hotel who is giving us a opportunity during these difficult times.
Double Room including Breakfast and Dinner (Buffet) 139 € per Room
Single Room including Breakfast and Dinner (Buffet) 99 €per Room
You can book the rooms to these conditions by yourself. Just use the code “ToniSport” when you call the hotel and tell them that you will participate at the ETS race! Please make your reservation by Phone: +49 5541 705 0 or send an email to the Hotel.
We hope that you will take the chance to stay in the Hotel to support the Hotel and our Event. Maybe we can create another great relationship here in Hann. Münden (as we have also in Daun) to run even more ETS races here in the future!
Adjustment of the Entry Fee
As we have mentioned earlier in this announcement, cost of daily life is higher than most of us have ever experienced in our life time and this brings many challenges to us in organizing events for the ETS. All of our cost to organize the ETS have drastically increased and that brings us to where we are now. As you know, me and Uwe have built up the ETS from the eyes of the racers. Always trying to look at things through your eyes and this includes the entry fee. The entry fee for ETS has not changed in over 10 years, which if you really think about it, with all the changes in life over the past decade it is something we are very proud of and have worked very hard to maintain. Unfortunately time has come that it has to change to ensure we can continue to bring all of you the best racing series in the World. As we move forward with the ETS, entry fee will be changed to 90 Euros. This is what it will take for us to continue to give you all the best possible series we can organize. Entry will still include a race T-shirt at your first ETS of the season as well as 1 set of tires per event and our hope is that our ETS family can understand our situation. This is not something we want to do but if we want to continue with the ETS, it is our only option.
All of us on the ETS team thank you for 15 years of unforgettable racing and we look forward to keeping the tradition of the ETS Series rolling on for many more years.
We have already posted these charts in our A2 + A3 report, but here you can see them once again listed class by class. There is still some data missing but step by step our ETS racers are using the chance to create an account on our website where they can edit their equipment race by race. Thanks to Awesomatix for supporting the ETS as our exclusive Equiment Chart partner. Detailed statistics about the equipment throughout the entire field of drivers will follow soon!
The third round of the Euro Touring Series in Andernach (Arena33) was another amazing ETS event. At every race, there are some things to talk about afterwards, and here are the 5 things we learned from ETS RD3 at Arena33…
[the_ad_group id=”141″]
1) Urbain showed that hard work pays off at one time
Hard work always pays off. What sounds like a common saying is reality. And Lucas Urbain has underlined this in bold in Luxembourg at ETS RD4. Lucas is one of the most experienced ETS top drivers and one of the best when it comes to perfect car preparation. He is always trying to find that last tenths in his car as he simply is a very passionate RC racer. Since he switched brands to Awesomatix some years ago, his career has been on a steep uphill climb with constant A-Main appearances and some podium finishes too. But winning an ETS race in the modified class against drivers like Rheinard, Völker, Coelho, and others did not seem to be granted to him. Lucas never stopped believing and working hard for this dream to come true and now it was time for him to win on a track he knows very-well. He finished fourth at the last ETS in Luxembourg (2016) running for VBC. Now he was just flying with his Awesomatix A800MMX and it was easy to see that he was full of confidence on the track. He has broken the track record (hot lap AND overall runtime) for 1:10 scale touring cars last weekend and it was great to finally see Lucas on the top step of the podium – chapeau monsieur!
2) A2 is the most important race of the weekend
Well, that may not be set in stone but when we look at the results there is something to it! All winners had been decided after the second round of A-Main in Luxembourg. We have seen that at many ETS races in the past as well, and this weekend it happened again. Five out of six classes saw the race winner starting from pole position (Urbain, Lauter, Mateo, Schulz, Ratheisky). Only Dominik Reile was not able to convert his pole position into overall victory in the Orca 17.5 Stock class, but third place starter Kevin Schmid stepped into his role and took the win in the first two A-Mains to seal the deal. In one of our last “5 things we learned” report we mentioned the importance of qualifying and the pole position as we noticed a very high quote of race winners are starting from the TQ spot. Now it is also clear, that most of our ETS races are already decided after the second A-Main. Let`s see if this trend will continue during the next rounds or racing at the Euro Touring Series!
3)Pole Position is actually not a good omen in the Orca 17.5 Stock class
Another statistic 😊 It is not really a trend but the last two races in the Orca 17.5 Stock class were not won from first on the grid. Jasmin Donath won from third on the grid at Arena33 in Andernach, and Kevin Schmid was able to win from second place now in Luxembourg. We can be sure that everybody will watch the TQ of the Orca 17.5 Stock class during the next races and we hope that this report will not create too much pressure in advance 😊
4) Practice makes perfect
Not only Lucas Urbain has shown that racing on home soil can be a benefit. We saw a lot of drivers from the LMCC Luxembourg doing a bit better that at most of the other races we see them on track. The Mini Circuit “Vile de Luxembourg” is technical, and fast track at the same moment and it requires a lot of confidence to fully “send” the car into the difficult sections and corners of the track. Luka Jovicic finished on a very strong second place in the Formula class and told us that driving thousands of laps on the track had helped him a lot to achieve this result. Jacques Libar also knows the track better than every other track he has ever visited. Jacques took third overall in the Hobbywing Frontwheel class, and he made the A-Main of the Awesomatix Pro Stock class for the very first time. Joe Streff made the A-Main in the ToniSport 40+ Masters class at his first race in 2022 without any practice. But as he also knows the track since the very first days he felt like driving in his living room. So, whenever you will have a bigger race coming up on your home track: practice, practice, practice, and don`t make yourself too much pressure in the days before the event!
5) Elevation changes are MEGA
“Just amazing” – “Unbelievable” – “So much fun to drive” – “ I can not understand why I have never been here before” – “This is the best track I have ever seen” Just some of the words we have heard during ETS RD4 in Luxembourg. You could see it on the pictures, in our track check video, and in the livestream and in our Qualifying and A-Main videos. The right side of the LMCC track is full of elevation changes and the “Laguna Seca” section was the most difficult, and spectacular section all weekend long. Every driver who had never been in Luxembourg before was full of enthusiasm after the first packs on track and this feeling didn`t stop until the end of the race on Sunday. With a lot of 1:10 scale onroad tracks are absolutely flat, the track in Luxembourg is quite the opposite and features bankings and elevation changes everywhere. The asphalt itself has almost no bumps and this combination makes the track “very racy” with a lot of spots for overtaking. If you have never been in Luxembourg until now – GO FOR IT. Even when it`s just for a practice weekend, we can guarantee you a lot of fun there!
