Manny Buginga put together another strong weekend at Swanfest, taking the win in Extreme N/T 275 against a competitive field.
In the final round, Buginga faced fellow Proline Racing customer Carlos Sanchez, who finished as runner-up. It was an all-Proline-powered matchup to close out the event, with both teams showing consistency throughout eliminations. Buginga and his team were able to finish the job and come away with the win.
The bigger story played out across the late rounds. Three of the final four competitors were Proline Racing customers tuned by Jamie Miller and the Red Hat Mafia, including Anthony Masiello. In a no-time format like Extreme N/T 275, where reading track conditions and making the right calls is everything, that kind of consistency across multiple teams stands out.
From the first round to the final, Buginga and his team stayed steady and made the right moves when it counted.
Congratulations to Manny Buginga, Carlos Sanchez on his runner-up finish, Jamie Miller, the Red Hat Mafia, and all the Proline-powered teams on a strong showing at Swanfest.
