Maifield cruises to victory in opening A-Mains

Team Associated’s Ryan Maifield made light work of the opening A-Main of the JConcepts Clash in both 2WD Buggy and 2WD Short Course with the Top Qualifier cruising to two very comfortable victories moving a step closer to retaining his titles in both classes. In 2WD Buggy the expected battle between Maifield and Team Losi Racing’s Dustin Evans never materialized after the Colorado driver struggled with the handling of his TLR22 which resulted in a mistake on the opening lap. In the end it was Evans team-mate JR Mitch who took second in both finals.

Serpent 811 Cobra Buggy 2.0 buggy

Serpent introduce the S811 Cobra 2.0, the evolution of the successful cobra platform. The buggy incorporates many subtile changes to make for more steering and a more responsive rear end. This was achieved by a wider rear end with a new geometry, more rear traction and a wider sweet spot. The updated rear shocks with longer piston rod and longer shock bodies moved to the rear of the wishbones and are protected by new lexan dirt shields. Also included in the kit is the Avenger cab forward body, four white colour disc wheels as well as larger bearings in the steering blocks, rear uprights and transmission as seen in the previous TE version.
