fr9On the eve of the 4th round of the FIA International Cup  for Cross-Country Bajas we talked to the G-Force Motorsport leader about the oncoming event. And while Boris Gadasin himself is preparing to departure to Hungary, we offer you a short interview with him:

Boris, how do you feel ahead of the Hungarian Baja?

- We look forward to competing in the Hungarian Baja, because on the previous round in Spain we obviously didn't drive enough competition mileage due to unfortunate breakdown of the crankshaft sensor. So we hope that in Hungary we will manage to complete the whole distance without problems, the more especially as the race stuck in our memory thanks to a very interesting route and a perfect organisation, which we experienced last year.

Were there any changes made to the car?

- Yes, some pre-arranged upgrades are to debut on this race. The most interesting modification is the latest evolution of Donerre shock absorbers with 7 adjustments, which will be used on a raid machinery for the first time. It became possible thanks to our wonderful collaboration with the Donerre that allows us to use such innovative solutions. On pre-event tests we want to find good settings for the dampers to suit the route's features and, of course, to adjust them to other systems of the car so that everything works like a single unit.

With 3 races of the series already behind, are you satisfied with your car?

- Without any doubt. Moreover, since we started our independent project on building a SuperProduction vehicle, interest to our car has significantly increased, which proves it's a very good car. At the moment we're busy building a few similar cars for our clients, and at the same time we get bids of buying our own prototype that we're driving now. So, probably, next season we'll drive a new self-designed car.

Talking about next season, what are your plans for the future?

- Of course, next year we'd like to continue our participation in the International Cup for Bajas. But I don't deny a possibility of returning to the Russian Cross-Country Championship. Moreover, we're interested in rallying also, so as an option we want to take part in some national rally series on a more regular basis.
