Default The Best 4WD Race!

Hey guys,

On March 7th I saw one of the best race I've seen with 4WD buggy. Here is the time slip from that race.

I heard Masami raced at SoCal this week sometime and I know Tommy is working @ AE and races at SoCal regularly, so I'd assume it was there that they raced.

The Cactus Classic isn't until next weekend. It should be tons of fun with all the world-class drivers coming out for it. I'm guessing results will be posted on the SRS website. But you figure, a race as big as this will have results posted on all the main RC sites as well.

BTW, I was at the club races last night and Atsushi Hara came by to check out the track...walked right in front of where I was pitted. ehehe

why are all the guys racing there from tucson? i'll be running an 8ight now until the RC8 comes out. the challenge really showed how bad my former car was. amazing how one triple,triple,triple section can ruin a race, due to the car but it did. now it has a new home.

why was that the best race u ever saw?

masami dominated with 20/19 second lap times.

second was a good 5 seconds behind.

and the rest of them were over 2 laps down or dnf's.

i'm sure there have been better races than that.

Yes indeed. Masami was there and lapped all the pro drivers there. He was running his Yokomo 4 wheel buggy. He was there Wed night and left the next day for the Cactus Classic. Afterwards he is heading to the world's back in Japan.

Are you referring to a Losi not being able to triple, triple, triple at the Nitro Pit?
