Maifield is one of the worlds best RC car drivers. like many pros he does not have to race at or live near any track to win, which he has proven. top tier pros travel a lot and have adapt insanely fast to a myriad of dirt, clay, carpet, and more surfaces deemed as offroad. maybe a off weekend for him, and his focus is actually on another upcoming event
It's not "supposed", it's there.

Obviously Maifield is getting old and has lost his touch.
But seriously, I get a kick out of what people expect of factory drivers. I just looked at the last round ran (round 4). In 2wd RM had a real bad first lap (extra 4.5 seconds), would have been 1.5 off tq without that. He ran a quicker fast lap than the tq. In 4wd he had a slow last lap, pace was .6 off tq until that point.

The 44 series started as the Jconcepts Bj4 which debuted at the 2003 Ifmar Worlds...13 years ago. It went through a couple changes at JC and was sold to AE a few years later which started the B44 series...there have numerous changes over the years with the B44.1, B44.2 and the B44.3....The original design has been around for a bit...

alot more events these days competing for drivers interests, and you can't expect to attend them all, tessman raced at proline chi-town race last weekend, had to skip a race to more than likely attend the silver state nitro race next weekend.
two NASCAR races raised the hotel prices in PHX, imo vastly raising the costs for some, making the Proline Cactus Classic too expensive to attend.
imo, to move the race to another month would have the same drastic results.

Overheard a lot of drivers saying this was the last Cactus Classic.
