The annual Belgium GP for 10th scale buggies took place this past weekend at the Kampenhout track that has played host to the event since its origins in 1989. Team Durango’s Jörn Neumann took the opening round of 4WD qualifying and looked good throughout the day to sit second on the grid for the 3-leg A final. After missing out on the TQ, Jörn was determined not to lose out in the finals and was driving his DEX410 with a mix of agression and precise control in his chase for the #1 spot. In both final legs 1 & 2 Jörn looked the fastest driver and proved it as he pushed past the reigning European Champion Lee Martin to take the lead and despite pressure he was uncatchable on his way to the two leg wins and overall victory with one final still left to run.
