Blair wins to progress to eBuggy A-Main

BlairBwin

Austin Blair will progress to the A-Main of eBuggy at the DNC after he took his Tekin powered Kyosho to an easy win in the 8-minute B-Main. Starting from third on the grid, the A-Main Hobbies team driver benefitted from errors by pole sitter Joern Neumann and the No.2 Mugen of Barry Pettit. Moving to the front after just three laps Blair would take a comfortable win 5.755 second ahead of Xray’s Martin Bayer and Pettit who will join him in tonight’s title deciding encounter. Leading away the 15-car field Neumann would put his Durango on its roof on the opening lap with his error also delaying fellow European Renaud Savoya. Neumann would work his way back up through the field from 14th position, setting the fastest lap of the race on the way, but finishing a fighting fifth right behind Savoya the result meant the end of the road for their eBuggy challenge at the Fear Farm.

After the recent ISTC World Championships in California, Red RC gets ready to switches from electric power to nitro power as well as travel to the other side of the World to bring you coverage of the 10th edition of the IFMAR 1:10 Nitro World Championship. With support from Maxima RC Racing Fuel, T-Work’s Asia, Rapicon Max Power RC Fuel, SMART-Workshop, and Infinity, we are excited to be returning to Huge RC Circuit in Bangkok, Thailand, the track of former ISTC World Champion Suirkan Chaidajsuriya hosting the WC for a second time. In 2014 we got to witness Alexander Hagberg claim his first & Xray’s second World title at this unique (and huge!) indoor track. With 2024 a year that we have already seen two historic World title hat tricks, will we see Infinity’s Tadahiko Sahashi become the first ever driver to defend their 1:10 Nitro title? Our coverage starts on November 19 (Tuesday) and runs through to Saturday’s title deciding 1-hour final. We looking forward to you following along as IFMAR crowns its final World Champion of 2024.
