Elias Johansson wins at Swedish 1/10th Buggy Nats Rd1

The opening round of the Swedish 1/10th Electric Off-road Nationals was recently held at the Green Hill track in Stockholm. The weather was quite cold and windy but a good turnout of racers made for fun and tight racing. The qualifying was a 3-horse race between Team Associated’s Elias Johansson, Wilhelm Sköldebrand and Niclas Månsson, the later ending up taking the overall TQ. In the opening A-main, Elias Johansson was able to grab the win after having a mixed first part of the leg but with about 50 seconds on the clock the leader made a mistake which promoted Elias into the lead. A2 again saw the leader making a mistake, this time at about halftime. Elias would benefit and he was able to bring home the win and with it the overall victory from Niclas Månsson 2nd and Wilhelm Sköldebrand 3rd.

Thanks to Elias Johansson for the report.
