Martin Wollanka wins Austria Cup

Martin Wollanka wins Austria Cup

The recent Austria Cup was held on the small and technical track of Jaidhof in the three 1/8th off-road classes of nitro buggy, nitro truggy and E-buggy. After qualifying Rene Kargl secured the TQ in the nitro buggy class with Thomas Dieselbacher and Martin Wollanka in tow. After the semi-finals Kargl was still on the top spot while Dieselbacher and Wollanka swapped positions, handing Wollanka the 2nd spot on the grid.


While the start went pretty much flawless for the frontrunners, Wollanka made a mistake on the third lap having him drop to the back of the field. With Kargl being in front about half a lap Wollanka started to push and after around 20 minutes Wollanka was back in 2nd position and he started to catch up on Kargl. In the closing stages of the race disaster stroke for the leader as Kargl suffered an engine flame out that cost him dearly. Wollanka though was able to secure the win some 2 laps in front of Rene Kargl while Andreas Scharinger completed the top 3 result.

Final result:
1. Martin Wollanka
2. Rene Kargl
3. Andreas Scharinger
4. Werner Spannbruckner
5. Matthias Zeilinger
6. Thomas Dieselbacher
7. Alexander Trinko
8. Stefan Scheuenpflug
9. Jurgen Stumptner
10.Alexander Schrattenecker
