Martin Bayer wins Czech Buggy championship Rd7
Round number 7 of the Czech 1/8th off-road championship was held in Dolní Bukovsko. The weather forecast looked everything but promising but at the end it stayed dry and nice all weekend to make for a worthy last race of the season. Martin Bayer (Xray) already won the championship two weeks ago and used the race to try and test a couple of new things on his XB9 buggy. Obviously they worked very well as Martin took the overall TQ for the finals but he struggled with the upcoming wind letting him drop to third after the semis. He then got everything together, took the lead in the very first lap of the A final and never looked back taking the day’s win in front of Jirka Mara (Xray) and Lukas Zeman (Xray). Fellow Xray drivers David Kukla and Stepan Silhavy ml. completed the top 5. In the overall championship David Kukla grabbed the runner-up spot behind Marting, Jirka Mara ends the season in third position.
