Congrats on the win Gene, but lets not mislead the readers. None of the guys mentioned in your post raced the Truggy class .

Good luck to everyone racing the Clash!

I did not race truggy class either.
In truggy, Factory Chad was racing, Chris Baron, Rob blatter. Not sure who else, but what does that matter? Walter Cruz won with VP-Pro Turbo Trax.

We can talk about the class that all the fast guys raced in.
In 1/8 Buggy, I had the fastest lap time in qualifying and the fastest lap in the A-main with wornout Ultra Flexx Turbo Trax that I ran in the 45 minute
A-main the week before at the RC Pro Florida State Series Finals that I TQ'd & won.
And congrats to Mitch for taking 1st with JC tires at the warm-up.

Good Luck everyone and see ya all at the Clash at Hurricane!

VP-Pro Turbo Trax makes a 1/8th buggy feel

They have not made any decisions about new truggy tires yet.

The 3 new buggy tires are on the way. I expect them to arrive at VP-Pro USA in early January. Along with many other new products like air filter oil, 1/8th pinion gears, tool sets, air filters, closed cell foams, ect.

The same prototype set of Axman you ran at the RC Pro Finals 45 minute A-main? They must last a long time

The Axman are sweet.

Hi Gene...Those results are from a club race at Mills Pond, not the Super Cup. The JC Super Cup is electric only and was held at a near by track earlier in the day. Hope to see everyone next weekend at the Clash .

Thanks,
Paul

VP-Pro USA will have a new Team manager for 2010. The TQ of 1/8 Expert buggy at the 2009 RC Pro Series International Finals, Matt "Puddin" Sistrunk. If you think you have the driving skills and would be a good representative for VP-Pro USA Racing Tires, please send your resume to:

They where the same pair used at the finals and Denver is still running the same Pair also. All of the tires last a long time.
