Well I have photos up. Pro A Main videos should be up by tonight.

http://www.rcdirtballs.com

Ryan Maifield won both buggy and truggy first-of-two 20min a-mains, which turned out to be the only pro a-mains, due to weather. So basically, Ryan won both pro classes. Since I thought results were going to be averaged, I didn't see how everyone else finished. Wheeler went out in truggy, finished 2nd or 3rd in buggy. Taylor James did, uh.. pretty good, I think... heck, I don't know. Watch the videos later.

It was a great weekend of racing. The layout was awesome and made for great racing. The Expert Truggy main was one of the best races I have ever seen!

My buddy all the way from Southern California went out to visit his father in Kansas, he was texting me daily letting me know how badass the event was, and he doesnt even race

Im sure he'll be racing when he gets back to Cali with me, though..

If you're reading this and you know you're Bryan M. dad PM me!!
