Newly crowned World Champion Matsukura set for Singapore International Nitro GP

Having confirmed Mugen Seiki’s reigning double 1:8 Onroad World Champion Shoki Takahata earlier this month, the organisers of the Singapore International Nitro Grand Prix have now confirmed newly crowned 1:10 Nitro Touring Car World Champion Naoto Matsukura for the 20th anniversary of the race.  Like Takahata, Matsukura became a double Nitro Onroad World Champion, the first driver to achieve the accolade in 1:10, when the Infinity driver took the win in Gubbio, Italy, last Saturday.  Taking place on October 10-11, the same weekend as the Singapore F1 Grand Prix, over the last two decades of the Singapore International Nitro GP, the Radio Control Modellers’ Club’s annual international race has welcomed numerous World Champions.  2026 looks like attracting its greatest line up of World Champions yet with drivers getting to race on the track’s newly laid asphalt.
