Belgian EP Touring car Nats Rd1

The first round of the Belgian 1/10th scale EP on road Nationals was run last weekend indoor in Charleroi. The event had 38 drivers in two classes, EFRA and 19 turn, and they were presented with a very fast but also technical track to contend with. After a tough battle in the EFRA class, it was Olivier Bultynck with his Corally Phi who took the win in front of Xray driver Benoit Thomaes in 2nd, while the 3rd spot went to Demsey Jacob driving a Tamiya 416. In the 19 turn class, it was again a Corally driver that was the overall winner, with Urbain Swijsen placing in front of runners up Rico Claeys and Thomas Stockman.
