Awesomatix confirm Urbain for MonTech NYGP
Awesomatix has confirmed that their factory driver Lucas Urbain will travel Stateside for next month’s MonTech New York Grand Prix, the seventh edition of the high profile US indoor race taking place at 360v2 RC in New Rochelle from October 16-19th. The French Touring Car driver, who secured the TQ and a podium at the most recent round of the ETS in Luxembourg, is the first international entry announcement for this year’s edition and will be looking to take the fight to North America’s leading drivers. Last year it was Awesomatix’s Kemp Anderson and Xray’s Keven Hebert who came away as the big winners securing victory in Mod 1:12 and Mod Touring Car respectively. The vision of long time 1:12 racer Donny Lia, the NYGP is the nearest thing RC will get to having a race in Time Square, the track just a 20-minute train ride from the centre of the City That Never Sleeps. Counting multiple World Champions Marc Rheinard (2022 NYGP Winner), Ronald Volker (2019 NYGP Winner), Alexander Hagberg, reigning 1:12 Stock World Champion Max Mächler and Ollie Payne as previous participants, 360V2 is one of the biggest indoor tracks in the US with racing takes place on a track layout covering an area of 105 X 48 feet.
