The 2019 CRCRCRC 1/8 Midwest Winter Champs has come to and end.I was able to TQ both Nitro Buggy & Truggy, and qualify 5th in Ebuggy.

I ran AKA Ultra-Soft Chainlinks on Ebuggy, Super-Soft Handlebars on Nitro Buggy, and Super-Soft Impacts on Nitro Truggy!

Nitro Buggy: This main was probably one of my best mains I’ve ever ran. From start to finish I only had one mistake. Me and my car were tuned in. I’ve been chasing this win particularly, and I finally got it! Being able to TQ & Win feels great!

EBuggy: In A1 I was able to work my way up to 3rd, which is where I would finish. In A2 I was able to work my way up to 2nd, but with a minute and a half to go me and a lapper got together which resulted me 3rd. With combined points, I would miss out on 3rd and the podium spot by one point.

Nitro Truggy: My truggy all weekend was dialed! I was able to lead the truggy main 90% of the race. Unfortunately, I had a battery malfunction which costed me my race.

My new X-Pert servos ran flawlessly all weekend long!

Congrats to adam on his 2nd place finishes in Ebuggy & Nitro Buggy!

All in all it was a great weekend. Big thanks to my sponsors and my parents for their awesome help and support!

Till next time.
