Offroad Race report

Slash “A” main
well Scott was cherry picking in the slash class and TQ over John Brumley by 4 laps. The main started out with an interesting start as Anthony and Zachary and first time racer Destiny were in the race but didn't run transponders. I think Zach beat his dad and Destiny finished out 5th. Just looking for some more slash racers as it looked like everybody was having fun and the trucks didn't look like they handled too bad.
10.5 2wd Buggy “A” main
Scott and Cornbread had a heated battle for qualifying with Scott taking pole on his second round results, Cornbread being a little faster just not getting the luck rolls in the heats. The main started out with Cornbread getting out on the field as Scott and Donald battled it out fiercely for second till about 3/4s of the race when Scott finally got to lay down some laps and locked on to Cornbreads rear motor plate. Scott and cornbread diced it out for the last couple laps with cornbread even running his fastest lap 3 laps from the end of the race, which he used to his advantage to take the win. Donald and John B finished out the lineup with Myron who had glitching and gear trouble all day and Zach who wasn't running a transponder.
Mod 4wd Buggy “A” main
Cornbread took pole with a blistering 24 lap run which stripped his rear diff gear in the process. So after hustling to repair his B44 to make the main he ended up falling to 3 off the start after some bad bounces off the infield triple. So digging in Cornbread battle back in front of Donald for second and set off to run down Myron. Myron out in front putting down consistent laps couldn't hold off a hard charging Cornbread. Cornbread jumped into the lead about 6 laps from the end and Myron tried to come back but some hard laps towards the end wouldn't have him back up front.

next race December 6th

Onroad Results

Novice TA
Baby and Yung battled for qualifying in the heats with Yung edging out Baby by 1 second. The main started out with Yung getting caught up and Baby taking the lead. Yung jumped back into the lead and started pulling out on the rest of the field. Autumn battled it out with Melinda for 3rd and taking it home and Melinda falling to 4th and with Baby putting it another solid second.
Pro TA
Myron still laying it down in TA class although Darryl had some close dicing with him in the heats. The Main had Myron lapping the field with Darryl taking second but the real battle was in the back as Tim Moore Bobby Mills Hayden P. and Mike Holt switched up positions for most of the race finishing in that order. Mike Holt was working on setting up a new car and not getting much love from it but it was heard that he got the specs for a dialed setup and will be back.
TC 13.5 Foam
Eeverybody picked it up in the heats after Eric doused the track in traction action. Eric taking TQ and the lead with Robert holding off a fast charging Darryl. Darryl scrapped a few walls and had to start worrying about Scott till Scott tapped out himself. Tim Moore who had some handling issues fell off to 5th.
