From Luxembourg to Slovakia and back to Germany
Dear ETS family,
we just informed you about the change for RD2 from the LMCC Luxmbourg to the Hudy Racing Arena in Slovakia. As everything was confirmed by the authorities we received another bunch of bad news, only some hours later. Due to the ongoing problems and the unsure situation with the Covid-19 Delta virus, the Slovakian administration installed a quarantine rule for everybody who wants to enter the country without being vaccinated completely.
Arena33 as last chance
Because of that, the amazing Hudy Racing Arena is not an option for RD2 in August anymore. The whole ETS crew now decided to cancel the new scheduled event and move it back to Arena33 in Andernach /GER. As we race RD1 in Andernach too, we know that this will not be the most attractive change in our schedule. But as we have everything, we need, at Arena33 it is kind of an economic decision for us as well.
We would like to point out, that we need planning security in these hard times and a change of RD2 to almost any other RC track would produce high numbers of costs. We need larger pit spaces (extra tents) to go with all Covid-19 rules and we see no permanent track being able to offer pits with 200+ places and enough space in between. In Andernach we now have the structure to comply with all Covid-19 rules in a good way and therefore we will stick with Arena33 for ETS RD2.
Racing Clockwise
To create a little bit of a “new track” for RD2 in August, we decided to run the track in the opposite direction (clockwise). That will create a new challenge for everybody and we are pretty sure that the track will be great running it clockwise as well.
We hope for your ongoing support
At this point we would like to say thank you for your understanding and we hope to welcome all of you for ETS RD2 in Andernach in August. It is amazing to see, that so many of you made their entries for RD1 and we are doing everything possible to get at least some big races organized during this summer as we don`t want to cancel out until the end of the year!
We will open the entries for RD2 very soon and we will inform you about it on time.
Thank you once again and see you soon,
Uwe, Scotty and the whole ETS crew!
