There were over 32 in electric buggies racing the last round of the South Division Pro Series race at Finishline Raceway. Martin Harrison qualified 7th. After making some esc and car setup changes Martin was able to work his way up in the triple A-Mains. Martin finished 3rd overall by taking a 3rd in my first main, 2nd in his second and third mains. This was the final round of the south division, and all of the divisional contenders were there.
Martin " I was able to drop the motor temps by 20 plus degrees with software adjustments. The new software is awesome! "
Great Job Martin!

Pete Waydo heads the M-Chassis enduro class!
The M-Chassis Enduro at the Tamiya Track went great and was some of most fun I've ever had RC racing. Our team of club racers was running a solid 6th out of 16 entries behind a bunch of TCS greats and the likes of Barry Baker! We were like the Bad News Bears. Our gearbox gave up at about hour 5 and the repair cost us a couple of positions taking nearly 45 minutes to repair.
The FX -- it performed flawlessly for the entire time, and only occasionally showed 3 LEDs running on asphalt on a 100-degree day. We were one of the few teams that went the distance on just one motor and I'm know the FX was a big part of that allowing superior brushe/comm wear using the required Tamiya silver can motors.

Team Tekin driver Andy Castellini captures the Electric 8th Buggy “TQ “ & a Nitro Truggy “TQ”. He then backed up his TQ runs by winning both the Electric 8th Buggy and the Nitro Truggy “A” Mains. All the action was at Hobby Hut Raceway located in Audubon, Pa, as they hosted Round Five of the Roar Region 2 1/8th Pro-Series Races. The RC8e was powered by a TEKIN RX8 with a 2000KV Tekin Truggy motor. JConcepts Subcultures provided excellent traction on a track that was worn down from a half season on racing and some hard weather.
Great job Andy!
