After nine months of exciting action the curtain has fallen on the 2008 WTCC Race Trophy, and what an amazing journey it has been! It started out all the way back in March with Race Trophy Brazil and since then we have crisscrossed the globe to Spain, Czech Republic, UK, Germany and Italy before finishing it all off with the $500,000 Race Trophy Final in Austria. Fast cars, big parties, great poker and $500,000 of cold, hard cash - the Race Trophy has had it all!

In the end it was Finnish player DoggyP75 who came out on top, beating out Marky_Crash in heads up play to take down the Race Trophy Final and the massive $285,000 first prize. DoggyP75 was a popular and deserving champion and had an amazing journey throughout the event, firstly winning a freeroll to qualify for Race Trophy Spain before outlasting and outplaying all challengers to take down the Race Trophy crown.

With a large contingent of DoggyP75's friends and family making the trip to Austria to watch the final, the celebrations went long into the early hours of Sunday morning as everyone celebrated not only Doggy's win, but also what a fantastic success the 2008 WTCC Race Trophy has been.
