Eduardo Galán de Andrés
Madrid, Spain

I was born August 8, 1982, in Madrid, Spain. My first R/C car was Kyosho Lazer Alpha that my parents bought me when I was 12 years old. I used it for a year to just play in the park and sometimes to run on a local track near my house. A year later my parents bought me a Losi XX. I then joined an R/C club in Madrid. I used my Losi XX to run on Sundays for the next 6 months, and then I give up it for several years.

Years later, in 2006, my girlfriend, Isabel, and I bought Mini Z’s and joined a Mini Z club. We had a great time for a number of months. It was because of running Mini Z’s that I met one of my best friends, Alberto. A few months after my girl give up R/C cars, I lost the interest in Mini Z’s; so Alberto and I decided to switch to 1/10 off-road. This is where I found my place and my friends.

I race 2wd off-road and I’m a proud member of CRAEM racing club. A club that has the unique indoor and multi-surface (clay, Astroturf and carpet) track in Spain.

Apart from racing, I write reviews of R/C items on the website of our club and I’m the site webmaster too. After writing a review of the B-FAST diff rings and balls for the website, Fred offered me the opportunity to be a B-FAST team driver, and of course I said, “YES!”  I feel really proud to be a B-FAST team driver, not only for the great products that B-FAST makes, but more importantly, it is the great people that I found behind B-FAST.

When I’m not racing I like to walk with my lovely girlfriend :), watch TV series’ (my favorites are Boston Legal, Prison Break, Criminal minds and Dexter), playing games on my Nintendo DS, discovering new things in my favorite operative system, Linux; listening music ( Massive Attack, Tool, Rammstein....), talking with my best friends (Rafa, DJ and Alberto) on a park bench while enjoying a coke.  :)
