The fourth and final round of the electric buggy Spanish Championship took place on the weekend of the 24th and 25th of September at the magnificent facilities of the club CAPA, near Madrid. Under great weather conditions, almost 80 drivers battled it out in both 2WD and 4WD for two days.
On Saturday the 4WD event was held. Veteran Enrique Fuciños took is Viper powered Yokomo BMax to a close win over local hero David Bustos with Tamiya TRF502. Charismatic Raul Solano drove his Kyosho Lazer FS II to the third position.

The 2WD event was as usual held on Sunday and is by far the main attraction at the national series with almost 80% of the sign ups. Following his good form from previous weekend’s racing, Ansmann factory driver Zacarias Villalba dominated the race taking three out of five qualifiers and all three A-finals with his Viper powered X2. Once again local driver David Bustos and Raul Solano took second and third respectively.

[Darren Boyle]

LOL Woody, nice one ;)..... (Yes Ansmann and Yokomo won the race)

[Darren Boyle]

And just to get the facts absolutley correct to save any possible confusion.....

The "race" was indeed won by Ansmann and Yokomo cars but the "title" was won by Yokomo and X-Factory (all powered by Viper RC of course ;))

Congratulations Enrique, 2wd and 4wd Champion..... Yokomo/X-Factory/Viper RC :D

Thanks everybody, especially Viper R/C and X-Factory, for their help to finally get these two titles. It's been hard... but well worth it. Thank you.

very nice.
was it difficult to get the right choice of tires? looks to be very tricky with combination of loose dirt and high grip carpet/astro?

[kikefu]

We had control tyre, so... equal for everybody, and four sets in total, including the mains, you just have to make them last.

Enrique.
