Martin Wollanka wins Austrian Nitro Buggy Nats Rd4

The fourth and final round of the Austrian 1/8th Nitro Buggy Nationals was held at the A-Team Graz track. The newly prepared surface offered high yet smooth traction and it was Xray’s Martin Wollanka who set the pace by winning three qualifiers to take the TQ while Serpent’s Hupo Hönigl closely followed in second spot. After the semifinals Martin placed his buggy on the pole position for the 45-minute main final with Hupo coming in second, only one second short of Wollanka’s time. The main then saw Martin and Hupo running like a freight train and thanks to a different fuel strategy Hupo was even able to take the lead at some point but a silly mistake had Hönigl collide with a back marker so he would loose contact to Martin. From that moment on Wollanka was able to cruise to the win with Hupo securing a happy second place. Dominik Bauer (Mugen) would round out the top 3 result.
