John Bruins wins Dutch Stock Nats Rd2

Last weekend saw the second round of the Dutch electric track nationals take place at the 2012 electric TC worlds track, The MACH in Heemstede. The worlds chicane proved to be a challenge to many drivers however it was round one winner, Team Kyosho driver John Bruins who would take the TQ honours in the stock class followed by track local Jitse Miedema and reigning Dutch national champion Rob Janssen. With the weather forecast seeming to be a bit dismal and chance of rain high, many drivers came prepared with rain cars however it thankfully remained dry all weekend which resulted in John taking the clean sweep, winning all three finals. Behind him an exciting battle took place with the following  three drivers ending up on the same points total. Final times would be tie-breaker in the end which saw Jitse Miedema driving a Spec-R R1 take second place, followed by Rob Janssen and his Tamiya taking third. Serpent driver Ronald Arts came in an unlucky fourth place, just missing out on a podium place.

Thanks to John Bruins for the report.
