Dankel & Myrberg win Rd6 in Southern Germany

Last weekend at the MSC Asbach saw the 6th round of southern German regionals run for both 1/8th scale and 1/10th scale. Saturdays free practice was rained off for most of the day until 3 o clock when the track was dry enough for 2 practice sessions followed by 2 qualifying sessions before the final 3 qualifying sessions on the Sunday. After the qualification was over it was Mugen racer Erik Dankel that was quickest in the 1/8th scale, while the 1/10th scale TQ went to Andreas Myrberg, driving the Xray NT1. The 1/8th scale final sawa dominate performance by Dankel, who had a 14 lap lead after 20 minutes but in his 2nd to last pitstop the clutch seized meaning that the car could not stop without the engine stopping. While this caused some problems for his last pitstop, his team managed and he took the win ahead of Heiner Martin in 2nd and Christian Schmidkronz in 3rd. In the 1/10th scale final it was a win for pole man Andreas Myrberg, who lead the whole race while those behind ran into problems, allowing Reto Konig up into 2nd with Felix Bischoff in 3rd.
