New comer Josh Burdon from BlackArts Racing Team took the first debut win for 2016 AFR Series
2016 AFR Series first race had begun on 19th March afternoon. New series driver Josh
Burdon from BlackArts Racing clocked 1:36.911 during qualifying and will start at the pole
with Maxx Ebenal and Najiy from S&D Motorsports at the back.
During the start, most of the drivers made a good and accurate launch and maintain a
good pace in the first few laps. By lap 3, Josh clocked the fastest lap time with 1:36.755,
at the same time successfully spread the gap with Maxx and Najiy. Bao Jin Long from Team
KRC tried his very best to keep up but the lap time of the top 3 drivers are difficult for him
to catch, so he was only able to stay at the 4th place. James Runacres from Asia Racing
Team performed so well in the race and climbed to 8th. However, due to jump start penalty
in the beginning of the race he ended up with 14th. In the end Josh Burdon won his first
debut race in AFR Series, Maxx took the second, Najiy was penalized for jump start so Bao
Jin Long took the 3rd.
Class B Modena Motorsports drivers Wayne Shen and Francis Tjia took the champion and
2nd runner-up. Hua Miao from Asia Racing Team took the 1st runner-up.
