Lee & Quek win at Singapore Race Party
The final race of the 2016 season at Urban PlaySpace was the year-end Race Party this past weekend. A total of 40 entries made this the year’s biggest race, and a fitting conclusion to an action packed racing year. In the Touring Stock Class (17.5T Blinky), a total of 30 racers battled for honours. Fresh from his big win in Xiamen, China, Nicholas Lee would secure TQ with 2 wins in the 3 qualifying rounds. In the A-main, Nicholas maintained his momentum and rolled to 2 wins in the first 2 legs. Dominic Quek showed great pace at the start of each leg but ultimately had to be satisfied with 2nd after winning Leg 3 of the A-main which Nicholas sat out. YS Heng was in a close battle with the rest of the field for the final podium spot, and finally secured 3rd.
