Edianto wins at Batam Night Race

The Batam Night Race was held last Saturday at the Batam RC Speedway Track, in Batam with racers from Singapore, Jakarta, Medan, Batam, Tanjung Pinang, Pekanbaru and Aceh in attendance. After the five rounds of 10 minute qualifying Jason Nugroho (Xray/Novarossi) took the TQ. During the final B-main it started to rain and the A-main was delayed by over an hour but all drivers wanted to race and so the main was started on a very wet track. Unfortunately no one was able to finish the race and so the top 3 result saw Edianto (Kyosho/O.S.) taking the win from Jason Nugroho with Asang Ho (Mugen/Reds Racing) grabbing the final podium spot. Behind the three Ameng (Mugen/Reds Racing) and Afriandy (Mugen/Reds Racing) completed the top 5 result.

sun_marcwinner-620x372

Marc Rheinard has won the opening round of the Yokomo Euro Touring Series in the Czech Republic. The Tamiya driver claimed the victory with a win in the third A-Main over Ronald Volker and Bruno Coelho, that also being the final order they would step on the podium in Hrotovice. After the thrilling last lap finish to A1, in which reigning champion Volker snatched the win from the Top Qualifier, A2 & 3 would be more straight forward for Rheinard despite Volker’s best efforts. An event that has been won each season by the champion elect, the win is a major boost for Rheinard and Tamiya in their ongoing quest to win back the title. Last winning the race in 2009/10, the race has since been the reign of Volker & Yokomo in their run of five consecutive championship titles. With the bonus point for TQ and his 14th ETS win, Rheinard travels to Round 2 in German in February, where he took his only win last year, with maximum Championship points.
