Our History
Season 2023
At the beginning of 2023, XIQIO Racing Team purchased a top-of-the-range factory Škoda Fabia Rally2 evo, with which Jan Kopecký won the Czech overall rally title in the 2022 season. We have a vehicle that is one of the best rally vehicles in the world.
In the 2023 season, two crews battled with the Skoda Fabia Rally2 evo on rally tracks. One Hungarian - Ferenc Vincze - Nándor Percze, who also thanks to good and honest preparation of the vehicle won the title of absolute champions in the Hungarian Rally Championship 2023. The final contest for the absolute Hungarian rally champion took place at the event in Nyíregyháza.
In addition to the Hungarian crew with XIQIO Racing Team's vehicle, Skoda Fabia Rally2 evo, Kacper Wróblewski - Jakub Wróbel also fought in the Polish Rally Championship in the 2023 season. It's a pity that this crew joined the competition only in the middle of the season, as they immediately achieved a number of podium finishes, including several victories.
Season 2018 - 2021
In the 2018 - 2021 season, XIQIO Racing Team focused on the preparation and rental of racing equipment, specifically the Skoda Fabia R5, but also competed in a number of smaller events with the Subaru Impreza N12.
Among the clients of XIQIO Racing Team in the aforementioned periods were also former Junior World Rally Champion, Romanian Simone Tempestini and Czech rally driver Ondřej Bisaha.
In addition to the rental of racing equipment, XIQIO Racing Team also participated in a number of car slalom events and smaller rally competitions in the 2018 - 2021 seasons with its own driver, Tomáš Struckel, driving a Subaru Impreza N12.
While the above-mentioned drivers took part in competitions and races in the colours of XIQIO Racing Team more or less sporadically, the Slovak legend, Igor Drotár, leased a Škoda Fabia R5 by the team continuously for four whole seasons, not only for rally competitions, but also for hill climb car races.
Igor Drotár in cooperation with Skoda Fabia R5 prepared by XIQIO Racing Team from Košice achieved excellent performances during the whole four years, not only on the domestic but also on the foreign scene.
Season 2011 - 2013
In the initial seasons, after the formation of XIQIO Racing Team, the team relied on several rally crews. At the beginning there was the Košice duo Radovan Mozner - Peter Vejačka and the Hungarian duo András Hadik - István Juhász. The first-named pair was later replaced by the crew of Tibor Cserhalmi - Peter Vejačka. At the end of the mentioned period, Norbert Kováčik with his drifter BMW M6 joined the XIQIO Racing Team.
Good drivers have dead flies on the sidewindows.
