Martin Wollanka wins Austrian Nitro Buggy opener

The opening round of the Austrian 1/8th Nitro Off-road National Championship was held at the Graz track. Xray’s Martin Wollanka would dominate the qualifying with his FX-powered ride to take the overall TQ but after the semifinals he had to settle for second behind Dominic Bauer (Mugen/Novarossi) as he pushed a bit too hard, making two mistakes in the progress. The main final then was a 2-horse race between Dominic and Martin with both wanting to take the win. Running with the same pace the two were never separated by more than five seconds and at the end Martin finished only one second ahead of Dominic while Michael Nalukowy (Kyosho/O.S.) had to settle for third.
