In the E-Buggy class, the Tekno buggy felt solid and the JConcepts tires were gripping the dirt well. I was comfortable but not perfect and climbed out a bit of a hole and grabbed the last spot on the 5 driver podium. It wasn’t a perfect run, but coming from 7th wasn’t ideal in a single A-Main and Joker laps to monitor. Overall, the control felt good courtesy of the Cayote electronics and FlySky radio and I’ll be ready for the next event. Congrats to Spencer Rivkin on taking that victory.

Paul Wynn got us all hooked up with JConcepts Overdose tires for the Nitro Buggy final and Tanner Denney helped prep to get main event ready. This is the one I let go with a mistake in the sweeper that resulted in a 55 second lap. After some frustrating laps getting back going, I settled in and felt out the car, engine, and tire package and was pleased with the feeling. It’s not easy battling for 10th when the equipment was podium ready. But, that’s racing! Congrats to Dakotah on taking that one at the end and to Brandon Rose on damn near pulling off the win. Also, shout out to teammate Seth VanDalen getting his Tekno into 3rd.

I can’t really complain about the event, we had a good weekend. A few things I would do differently and we will take that into the next event and see if we can get back on the top step. Thanks to Tanner Denney in the pits, Paul Wynn and Hannah Hardison for the JConcepts support, and Troy Hanson from A-A-Main and Cayote along with the great Tekno team and pit area. As always, thanks to Dave Leikam for events like this and Elite RC Productions for the great direction and live coverage.

Next race, North Georgia Shootout.
