2026 Asian Buggy Championships Rd 4, Indonesia – Chassis Focus Index
Indonesia played host to the season finale of the Cayote/VP Pro backed Asian Buggy Championships over the weekend, with West Side Raceway in Jakarta the battle ground that brought the fourth season of the high profile Asia based 1:8 Offroad championship to a close. It would prove to be a big weekend for Team Associated as their drivers took both the Nitro and eBuggy wins on the impressive Adrian Wicaksono designed dirt track. Securing the TQ honours, Alex Bernadzik went on to win the 1-hour final, the Australian claiming his first international race victory. It was also a major win for Hyunkyu Jung, the talented Korean teenager winning eBuggy ahead of Top Qualifier Pekko Iivonen. We got to photograph both winning buggies for our Chassis Focus as well as the title winning Sparko of new 2026 Asian Buggy Championship double Champion Jayden Edmunds. In total we featured buggies from five different manufacturers including all three nitro buggy podium finishers and fourth place, all representing different car manufacturers.
