Ronald Völker wins at Charity Race 2015

Last weekend’s annual Charity Race, organised by the Team La Gang and hosted by the RC Landia facility in Scandiano, Italy, not only saw the running of a competitive Touring Stock class but the race also attracted some of Europe’s fastest Touring Car Modified racers. Yokomo’s Ronald Völker and Tamiya’s Marc Rheinard would battle for the TQ and while Marc took round TQs in Q1 and Q2, Ronald stroke back in Q3 and Q4 with the two ending tie on points but the better tie-breaker, Ronald only finished in 3rd in Q2, handed Marc the pole position for the triple A-mains. In the opening main Ronald came out fastest one lap ahead of Yannic Prümper (Yokomo) while Marc ended the race in third only 1.2 tenth of a second shy of Yannic. A2 had the top 3 drivers upping their game as Marc, Ronald and Yannic ended the race within 7 tenth of a second. The third and decisive A-main again ended super close with Ronald and Marc separating only 0.6 seconds on the finish line, meaning Ronald would take the overall win from Marc and Yannic. Victor Wilck and Marcel Geiger completed the top 5 result.
