Following their fine 2nd place in the SP3 class of the hotly-contested German VLN series at the previous event, Autohaus FUGEL / FUGEL SPORT went one better by winning in SP3 last weekend, again on the formidable Nurburgring Nordschleife. The successful driver pairing consisted once more of Markus Fugel and Uwe Wächtler. Using MUGEN’s potent NR11 version of the K20A 2.0L engine in their agile JAS -constructed HONDA Civic Type-R excellently prepared by the German team, the pair finished ahead of many larger and more powerful cars after 6 hours of racing despite battling steering damage over the last 2 laps”.
