This was the issue with the first broken transmission.


And the second one had broken plastic center gear. Basic stuff. Replaced that one and it's ready to go again.


Loving the current setup, so I'm ready to hit the sand hills tomorrow at the Nationals!


Tomorrow is the big day. Finnish Championships are beign held for the first time! My attention is to continue the good pace from previous comps!

[Zarizi Tech]

Finnish Nationals are behind and I'm pleased to say, that it's all good news for Toxoplasma Condii!


Before the comp. Attaching the battery and all was set to a fight of a century!


Courses looked challenging before the comp.


Lots of tricky vertical spots to clear.


Seven rigs on the line. This was the comp you were only allowed to drive one rig per class.


At the start of course two.


On the way!


Starting to look for the remaining three gates.


The end looked like point and shoot thingy.


So I did. Unfortunately the line was a bit wrong there.


Off we go!


Leading the comp in the half way break.


Last course had to be the hardest of the year so far.


Through gate three.


That's the furthest that anybody was able to make it.


That's where it went wrong for me too.


Here is the whole competition on video. I made the best scores to all six courses.


Four times finnish champion - Toxoplasma Condii!!


The rig just flat out works. It's awesome!

There will be two months brake before the last two competitions of the year. 10.10.15 is the last competition of Foff Cup 2015. Nothing to change of the rig. It's good now to take a little rest before the end of the season.

[Zarizi Tech]

Time to be active again!


After braking another set of gears from the transmission I now have switched all gears to steel ones.


There is no need for other changes at this point. Rig is working as it should and I'm trying to get another victory for it tomorrow.


Last comp of Foff Cup 2015. I have already ensured the title, but I'm always hungry for more.

This time you can follow the comp live through our live scoring! Comp begins at 09:00AM(CET)

[Zarizi Tech]

The last competition of Foff Cup 2015 is done.


This time we drove in Vääksy. A whole new comp spot.


Some photos from course five.


I made my comp really tricky already at the first course, where I scored the lowest points of all pack.


Luckily I got the good mood flowing again from course two and it was time to start climbing up in the ranks.


After this fifth course I was 20 points behind the leader, so my climbing had been a success.


I was first one to hit the final course.


On the third gate, there was already little drama, when I couldn't made it at the first try.


Luckily I was able to escape it without reverse.


Made it to the top with some mistakes.


Here is the last course. I was pretty sure of the victory when I made it through.


Luckily for me, victory it was!


Here you can see the final scores. As you can see, after the first course I got the good mood flowing.


With six victories in six comps, it was pretty easy to breath up there!


BIG thanks to all of the fellow competitors of this season. It was a good one!

One more comp to go before starting planning next season. After couple of weeks it's racing time again.

[Zarizi Tech]

Time to get set for the last comp of this season. Old Boys Competition VI!!


Just a minor repair to do.


All set. One more comp and then we can start planning on 2016. There will be some news for the electronics at least.

Here is link for live scoring on saturday. Comp will start at 09:00AM CET. I hope I'll be able to continue the good performances as I've done so far.

Season is now done in foff. Here is some story from the last competition.


Shiny and set to start!


Some really serious courses there!


Ready to hit the first one.


My driving was suprising myself too on saturday.


Everything went smooth and it was easy to drive after a long season.


Even these hardcore courses were not stopping Toxoplasma Condii.


I was able to get quite a gap to Saku on the first five courses.


This was just one of the days without problems.


Making the speed matter for the finishing gate!


All or nothing!


This doesn't look even nearly as steep as it was.


It's there!


Ready to hit the final course.


Got nearly half way through it before I rolled. Still extremely happy about the performances of this season. Eight victories and one second spot in the winter comp. I need to fix it for next season.


Fifth course on video. This was actually one of my best performances of all year!


The results. Victory with nearly thousand points!

After this extremely good season, I don't want to mess with the setup too much. Some updates and tests to the electronics might be in order. Now though, it's time to rest a bit.

[Zarizi Tech]

Time has come to start the season 2016!


Had to make a temporary steering and drag links, cause I loaned my only Jato rod ends to my 2.2 mod rig.


A lot heavier, but they will do the work just as well.


Otherwise there is no changes after last season. It was working perfectly, so I thought I'd keep it that way.

On saturday we have the first comp in southern part of Finland, Vihti. The Winter Foff Comp VIII. It's the eight time that we are doing the annual winter comp.

Here you can follow live scoring: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets...hDc9ww/pubhtml (Begins on saturday 10AM CET)

Every single time when I have driven with this rig, I have been second. This is the only comp that this rig hasn't won yet.

IT'S ABOUT TIME!

[Zarizi Tech]

First comp of 2016 is now done.


We travelled to southern part of Finland for The Winter Foff Competition VIII.


Total of nine rigs showed up to the start line!


Toxoplasma Condii making through the first course.


My starting position was in amongst the last ones, so it was a true battle to get through.


Bouncing from side to side.


But eventually making it to the top!


First four courses done and the sun made a pleasurable visit for us!


At this point the weather was nearly perfect.


Two courses left and so far the comp had been a blast. Only one gate as for mistakes.


Turning in for the hardest course of the day.


I had only one plan: Shoot for it!


Here you can see my line compared to the previous rigs.


Shooting to get through the steep sidehill section worked out.


Deeper up top!


Finished with couple of gates!


Nobody else was able to do so.


Going in for the last course.


At first there was this steep sidehilling section.


Made it nicely through and all that was left was straight climb to finish and victory!


That's how close I got in there! Almost made through all the courses!


Beautiful finnish winter day shows some incredible contrast there.


Here are all of my performances on video. I'm especially happy about the fifth course.


And here is video, that friend of mine shoot from the competition! Cool stuff!


After battling in The Winter Foff seven years a row, I finally got the victory to Toxoplasma Condii! Rig was definately delivering all that was possible in there!


Here are the results. Pretty clear victory this time.

Next and the first Foff Cup competition of this season will be driven on the beginning of april. For now there's nothing to do with this rig. I have to start preparing my unlimited rigs for season start soon though.

After long winter last weekend it was time to start Foff Cup 2016!


Weather wasn't sunny, but at least it wasn't raining either.


"Warning! Children playing!"


First course on the way.


End on the first one required exact line and throttle.


Going still!


Apparently I had neither of those.


Second course went really well and I scored full house points.


Third one was perfect as well!


Tried to drive cautiously on the timed course to avoid rolling over.


That worked out pretty well and I scored second fastest time.


Looking up for the final course.


And evetually after some exciting moments made it up!


This was the best way to start the season.


Here are my performances from the comp. The first course was the only one, that I'm not 100% happy.


This was a good way to kick off yet another season of Foff Cup. Rig is awesome and driving feels natural. I'm just gonna continue.


Here are the final results. Nothing much to improve.

Next comp will be held after a month, so it's just waiting till then.

[Zarizi Tech]

Finally back here writing. I'm awfully late with the updates, but luckily we have only driven one comp since the last one.


First it was time to do the courses. It takes breath away!


Pretty good amount of rigs on the line!


Tackling along the first course.


This gate at 250 points was too tricky for me.


Had a pretty decent run in the timed course as well.


Made almost full house points in this course number five.


Pretty fine piece of cliff to drive over there.


On course six I was able to clear the tricky bits in the first gates and that's why I kept my score high.


I'm pretty happy about the performances of this Foff Cup comp 2. Consistancy is in good level at the moment. Not too bad mistakes on any course and still being able to go almost in the finishing line.


Another win under the belt. Hoping this mood to continue.


There are the scores of the day. There isn't gap quite that big to make a big mistake on the day, so the consistancy is really good thing.

Next comp will be driven next weekend in Laukaa. Finally back in foff action!
