Conley wins the Abe Lincoln Presidential Race!

The race was at RJD hobbies and raceway in Lincoln,IL. RJD is ran by Darrell and Bee Paige and they provide a great facility with an indoor and outdoor off-road track, and a stacked hobby shop. The Paiges whole family work very hard to make this track a great place. This was there Abe Lincoln Presidential race, with practice on Friday Feb 22nd, and the entire race being ran on Saturday Feb 23rd. With about 100 entries for the event.

Lee Conley was able to TQ every round and win the A main of 4wd SC which was the largest class with 40 entries, with his Tekin RX8/Pro4 powered Durango DeSC410.

In the 4wd mod buggy class, Lee held TQ till the last round when Mike Paige ripped off a new Tq. Lee would start in the 2nd position for the main with Xray's Mike Kochanaski starting right behind me. In the 2nd corner Paige made a bobble which let me sneak by. Kochanski and Paige would battle the entire race for 2nd allowing me to hold my lead and take the win with my RsPro/Redline Gen 2 6.5 powered Durango DEX410.

In the 2wd mod buggy class Lee was the 2nd qualifier , after making a bad tire choice he was able to hold on for a 3rd place finish in a very stacked a-main. "Tekins great performing products and unmatched dependability is just one less thing i have to worry about at the races. This race day was full of close , clean racing in each class. I'd like to thank RJD for putting a great show and look forward to there upcoming big races. " Lee Conley
