Wischnewski wins Rd1 in Central Germany

Last weekend saw the first round of the central German regionals run on the MSC Kirchhain track, near Marburg. Qualifying saw the pole position taken by Xray NT1 driver Dirk Wischnewski with team mates Andreas Schuch and Patrick Garbi lining up in 2nd and 3rd position on the grid for the main final. The start of the main final saw Dirk, and Mugen racer Alexander Mehl, pull away at the front until Dirk had a flame out dropping him down the order and allowing Mehl to take the lead. The Mugen racer held onto this position until a mechnical problem sidelined the Mugen driver allowing Dirk back into the lead which he held onto until the end of the race, leading home 2nd placed Patrick Garbi with SMI owner, and Xray importer, Bertram Kessler in 3rd, both drivers also racing the NT1.
