Jason Nugroho wins Indonesia Buggy Championship Rd1

The MRCC Track in Medan, North Sumatera played host to the opening round of the Indonesia National Buggy Championship. A total of 49 drivers attended the event whose schedule saw six rounds of 10-minute qualifying with the four best rounds to count. Due to heavy rain after the second qualifier the race director decided to cut short the qualifying and make it four rounds with the best three to count. In the end Rama Tribudiman (Team Associated/O.S.) took the TQ honours but in the 60-minute main final he suffered several flameouts and only finished in 11th place while Jason Nugroho (Xray/Novarossi) took the win from Adrian Wicaksono (HB Racing/Reds Raicng) and Stanley W (HB Racing/O.S.) in second and third respectively.
