This past weekend was the final round of the 2013 JBRL Nitro Series hosted by Hot Rod Hobbies in Saugus, CA.  After eight months and eight rounds of racing across Southern California three manufactures dominated in the 2013 series.  Team Losi Racing won four classes including Expert Nitro Buggy, Intermediate Nitro Buggy, Electric Buggy, and Expert Nitro Truck.  Pro-Line Racing was the tire of choice for the winners in all eight classes and Nova Rossi engines power the winners in all seven nitro classes!!

The first few rounds started did go as planned for Team Losi Racing’s Adam Drake.  Drake had great speed at all the events, but ran into a few problems that made his chance for the championship an uphill battle.  Drake was able to work hard and have great results to finish the series and took home the Championship in the Expert Nitro Buggy, Electric Buggy, and Expert Nitro Truck for the second year in a row.

Robert Wickham won the Championship in the Intermediate Nitro Buggy class.
