CARRERA CUP ROUND 02 KEI-TUNE RACEWAY - 26/27 MARCH 2016

Infinity Driver Masao Tanaka has taken an impressive TQ and Victory at the recent second round of CARRERA CUP held in Kei-Tune last week. Starting from qualifying the Japanese ace driver show an unmatched speed on the track allowing him to take the TQ honor.

For the 20 minutes Amain final his team adopted a very aggressive strategy deciding to change tires at 10 minute mark; all other competitors decided for the long run.

The gap accumulated during tire change were huge but Tanaka’s pace were incredibly fast recovering the time wasted in the pits with a series of record lap times that impress the audience… With this “qualifyng mode ON” he could grab a well deserved win in front of Takayasu San and his HB R8 (9 second margin) and Hot Bodies chief engineer Miyashita San (1 lap behind) that sits on the third spot of the podium.
