Hagberg doubles at Snowbird Nationals

Xray’s Alexander Hagberg has doubled at the world famous Snowbird Nationals in Orlando, Florida, the Swede becoming the new Modified 1:12 and Touring Car Champion at the 31st edition of the race.  With 2024 1:12 Champion Donny Lia not attending this year’s event, the battle in 1:12 would be between former World Champion Hagberg, World Championship Top Qualifier Kemp Anderson and ROAR Champion Keven Herbert.  Over the 4 rounds of qualifying Hagberg set the fastest time in Q3 to secure the TQ ahead of Anderson’s Awesomatix which also had its best run in the penultimate round.  Over the single 8-minute A-Main Hagberg led from tone to tone and while Anderson and Hebert swapped position early on, it was the former who finished runner-up almost 1- lap down.  In Touring Car, defending Champion Hebert would line up third as Hagberg secured the TQ from MonTech New York Grand Prix Anderson.  Over the 5-minute race decider, setting the fastest lap of the race Hagberg would extend his advantage over Anderson by 3.4-seconds, the Top 5 positions on the grid remaining unchanged at the finish.
