Marc Rheinard TQs & wins ETS warm up race

In preparation of the forthcoming third round of the 2016/17 ETS, the Asoger club in Madrid, Spain held a warm up race this past weekend. Infinity’s Marc Rheinard would sweep the Touring Modified class qualifying, taking all four rounds from Yokomo’s Ronald Völker who had to settle for second in front of Yokomo team mate Christopher Krapp. The finals were a pretty entertaining affair with the opening leg being won by Marc who had the freight-training Ronald and Christopher in tow. In A2 Marc hit a curb in the opening stages which resulted in a DNF with Christopher taking the win from a chasing Ronald while Javier Alonso would take a third place in A2. The third and decisive main was held under difficult conditions as strong wind made for a dirty track that would lead to a Völker spin on the opening lap and a DNF for both Ronald and Christopher as the latter couldn’t avoid T-boning Ronald’s car. With his main competitors out of the equation, Marc was able to cruise to the win from David Perez in second and Arturo Escarpa in third. Overall and behind inner Marc, Christopher and Ronald would make up the top 3 result.
