KW DRIFT SERIES ROUND 3

FRANCE

Frenchies strike back

Another very exciting round of KOE in France, started as usual with a full demo of the talented dutch drifters during all free practice sessions.  But French troops were preparing the battle.


Qualifications results will show a perfect balance between french and dutch drifters
 

1; 97; Kees Kok (Hollande)
2; 94; Marco Kok (Hollande)
3; 92; Jasper Spaan (Hollande)
4; 91; Franck Lagalice (France)
5; 88; Andre Kok (Hollande)
6; 88; Laurent Goupil (France)
7; 83; David Roze (France)
8; 82; Tony Join (France)
 

During the first round of Top16, all the top8 qualifiers will go through with a very nice run of the ex-Yashio Factory S15 Kevin Delhaye against his team partner David Roze.

The real game will start with these 1/4 finals, first one Kees Kok vs Tony Jouin.  Sounds like a replay of the same 1/4 final in Chambley but this time Tony will take the win against Kees, first mistake of the year for Kees!

 

Second 1/4 final : Andre Kok vs Franck Lagalice, double spin and double 0 for the first leg and equal on the second leg.   A one more time session will give the win to the french man!

 


 

Third 1/4 Final : Jasper Spaan, well known KOE drifter against newcomer Laurent Goupil, really tight battle between these 2 guys, Jasper grab the win by small but enough advantage!  Watch out for Laurent Goupil in near future!
 

Last 1/4 final will be Marco Kok versus David "smokemachine" Roze with his JZX Chaser.  Two opposite styles for these 2 men, technical Marco vs showman David.  David will take the win only by a first corner mistake of Marco. 

Semi Finals are coming and 3 french guys are still in, first time in whole KOE history...

First semi-final, Franck Lagalice vs Tony Jouin, battles are really close, only a spin from Tony in second battle will give open the way to the final for Franck!
 

David Roze against Jasper Spaan, this is the second semi-final.  Two Toyota drifters, two showmen, two smokey guys but the lighter AE86 from Jasper will take over the Cresta!


3rd place final will see David Roze take the lead over Tony Jouin, congratulations to David for his first KOE podium!

Last battle, the final, will be : Franck Lagalice and his Black E34 M5 vs Jasper the Turboed Hachiroku man!  France vs Holland, sounds like the same battle since beginning of the week-end...


First final battle : 5/5

 

 

Second battle : the mistake will come from Jasper, a too low speed exit will leave the way open for Franck to escape and take the win!


Congratulations to Franck who is still drifting with his "daily" car and still awaiting his new drift machine : a lightweight TwinCompressor V8 M5.  Can Franck or Jasper be new contenders for Kees in the race to the crown, see you at next round for the answer!
