Ben Sterling wins 2WD Modified at Wodonga Cup 2013

The 2013 Wodonga Cup took place in Wodonga, Victoria and it was Kyosho’s Ben Sterling who TQ’d two out of three qualifiers to take overall TQ for the finals. After scoring a win in the first final and having a nightmare run in leg number two Ben had to win in the decisive final in order to take the overall win for the day. On the tone Ben started off well but coming a little sideways and onto the grass later on allowed Glen to take the lead that only last for a couple of laps until he came wide onto the main straight allowing Ben to take the lead again. He then held Glen off again for 3 laps until Ben made a mistake after the triple and Glen made a move up in the inside. With 2 laps to go Glen got crossed up coming off the back sweeper and Ben made the move. The last lap Glen pressured Ben hard, at this point the Kyosho driver was just driving really defensively. Glen tried to make a move on the inside of Ben off the little double in the middle of the track but hit the curb and flipped. This gave Ben some breathing room and he just finished off the lap conservatively to take the overall win.
