2012 Rc Pro Series Round 4; Man what a hot weekend!
Practice(July 20th):
The day of practice was great! Through all day of practice we ran M3 Blockade on E Buggy, Open Buggy, and 4wd Short Course but not on Open Arena Truck. On Open Arena Truck we ran M3 Revolver VTR only until the UPS truck arrived with the New M3 Blockades for the Truggy just in time for Qualifying the next day. The M3 Blockades for both buggies and Short Course were hooking up so we decided to run them for Qualifying. There was also a little shower of rain but that was just fine considering the temp was about 106.
Qualifying(July 21st):
For qualifying we ran M3 Blockades on all cars because they were just great! Throughout all of Qualifying we were having bad luck in all classes. I ended up qualifying 7th in the Open Buggy C Main, 6th in the Open Arena Truck B Main, 10th in the E Buggy C Main, TQ in the Short Course B Main.
Mains(July 22nd):
In the Mains I was still running the M3 Blockades on everything. Lets start with Short Course, I was starting 1st in the B Main and I ended up having a race for the lead the whole race until 2nd place’s battery came unplugged. I lead for the rest of the race and was coming around at the end and got one last lap in and second didn’t, and thank God because my battery died on that lap. I win the B Main and bump to the A and out of a Triple A Main I end up finishing 11th after having 2 bad A mains. Next on to the Open Arena Truck, I started 6th in the B Main and just had bad luck and ended up breaking a shock and I finished 7th in the B Main. Next on to E Buggy, I started 10th in the C Main and finished 5th. Next on to Open Buggy, I started 7th in the C Main Finished 2nd and bumped to the B Main and finished 11th in the B Main.
