Norwegian 1/10th Buggy Nationals Rd3 – Report Posted: 07 Aug 2019 12:42 AM PDT The Marås Raceway of Radøy in Norway played host to round 3 of the Norwegian 1/10th Buggy Nationals last weekend. The weekend kicked off on a wet surface for the 2WD portion of the event and after the opening two qualifiers it looked like it would be a 5-horse race for the overall TQ but on the drying track it was Trond Sætre who would hold the upper hand in front of Peter Stein and Vincent Ruger. A1 was a fight between these three drivers together with Jostein Helland and Adrian Søgnesand and the five fought it out all the way toll the end. After five minutes of driving it was Peter Stein that took the win in front of Trond Sætre, but the race was close with only a six second spread down to 5th place. In A2 it was Vincent Ruger who would cruise away to a win with a six-seconds lead, again with Trond Sætre in 2nd place. Going into A3 it was a battle between five cars for the overall win, but it was Trond who took the win in front of Peter so the overall victory went to Peter, tied on points with Trond, but with a faster time. 2WD final results: On Sunday it was 4WD time and in the first qualifier it was only Adrian Søgnesand, Peter Stein and Arne-Peder Flesvik who were able to score 13 laps runs. Within the next three qualifiers on a drying track Jostein Helland, Dan Terje Bjørnflaten, Vincent Ruger, Torbjørn Jørgensen and Stig Reitan also made it into the 13-laps In the opening final it was Adrian who set the pace, but after being unlucky and loosing a wheel, Peter took the win just in front of Vincent. A2 was a five minute battle between Adrian, Peter and Arne-Peder with the three changing places and racing as fair and close as it could be. In the end it was Adrian who took the win after fighting hard back after a mid-race mistake. The 2nd place went to Arne-Peder only two seconds behind Adrian. Just as in 2WD it was wide open between four drivers to take the overall win. In the third A-main Adrian led the race in front of Peter, but after an early mistake, Peter could cruise away and take the win. And so, with his win om the first final, Peter took the overall win. 4WD final results: Thanks to Peter Stein for the report.

Gollner & Wurmhöringer win at Austrian EP Nats Rd5 Posted: 07 Aug 2019 12:06 AM PDT The fifth round of this year’s Austrian Electric On-road Nationals was held at the LAMAC track in Carinthia last weekend. In the Touring Modified class the race for the win looked to be on between Patrick Gollner, Dominic Vogl and Sascha Klug. Right from the start it was Patrick who set the pace with Dominic and Sascha close behind. It also looked like Patrick would dominate the opening A-main also but in the penultimate lap Patrick’s car lost drive which allows Sascha to close up and eventually take the win while Patrick was lucky enough that the remainder of the drivers weren’t able to make the extra lap. Dominic, also in the mix after the qualifiers, had his own problems as he took the exit on the straight too optimistically. The second final again saw Patrick settle down straight away, Dominic came in 2nd and Sascha in 3rd. However this time the Patrick was able to holds the lead until the end to take the win with a 5-seconds margin on Dominic and Sascha. The rain then came back for the decisive third A-main and this caused a bit of havoc. At first it was Patrick who had to stop his car after three laps with Dominic also running into trouble. Up front it was rain god Christoph Ramsauer who once again showed a great pace in the wet with Toni Eder coming on the 2 spot while Sascha was able to bring home a 3rd place finish. When the “dust” had settled it was a lucky Patrick with the overall win from Sascha Klug in 2nd as Toni Eder was able to grab the final podium spot thanks to his 2nd place finish in A3. In Pro10S the usual suspects lead the field with Markus Wurmhöringer and Andreas Teubl leading the way. In the end it was Markus who was just getting a tad faster than Andreas. As soon as Andreas scored a new fastest lap on the track, Markus was able to up his pace. Thus Markus took the TQ and was able to win the opening two A-finals for the overall. Andreas came in 2nd while Manfred Danner took profit of the weather gods to take 3rd overall.
