Urban Community Park GP Buggy Series Rd1 – Report

The opening round of the Urban Community Park GP Buggy Series was held at the UCP R/C track in Central Jakarta this past weekend. The event was organised by the Indonesia R/C Car Community IRCC, an association of eight track owners in Indonesia, in order to push RC racing in the area. The UCP track layout is pretty huge, with more than 60 seconds average lap time, while the remainder of the facility is also being world class. The race was attended by racers from several provinces in Indonesia including East Sumatra, South Sumatra, Jakarta, West Java, Middle Java, and East Java.

The format of the race was four rounds of qualifying with bump-up finals. Due to the huge track and interesting layout, the race produced four different top qualifiers with Stanley Wangsanegara ultimately taking the overall TQ position. After a gruelling and very close fight in the 45-minutes A-main final, Stanley narrowly took the win from Yoyo coming in a close 2nd. Young and talented Falla obtained the 3rd spot from Richard 4th, and Jeffry 5th.

Thanks to Stanley Wangsanegara for the report.
