Fastest guys at the NW regional were running either a Thunder Power or R1. The speed between the two seemed on par, yet were rockets compared to everything else. I borrowed a D3 to race, and had to borrow a Reedy Sonic after the second qualie just to keep up. Finished 2nd overall, so I was pretty stoked, considering the massive disadvantage in HP.

As always though, a clean race and decent setup will help compensate for a lack of HP. I had a pretty clean Main, despite being slower than some of the heavy hitters. I'm not about to complain though, our mini field was STACKED this year. Some epic close-quarter racing went down!
