Race Report by Rainer Ressar
Estonian Nationals Round 3 was held at the newly resurfaced Tartu RC Track. The conditions were always changing on a very windy day on the astroturf and red clay track. In Qualifying it would be Karl Kasekamp and Hendrik Lainemae with their XRAY buggies setting the pace in Nitro Buggy and eBuggy respectively. The trend would continue in the finals.

Kasekamp would lead the field for the first stint but would suffer technical issues on the out lap. Hendrik would take the lead being closely followed by Robin and Rainer. 5 minutes before the end Rainer suffered technical issues forcing him to pit to fix a loose pivot ball, which dropped him to 5th behind Jaanus Saare and Arco Aria. In the end it was Lainemae from Ilus, Saare, Ressar and Aria.
