Sun-MaifieldBugWinner

Thunder Alley is host to the 2011 ROAR 1:8 Nationals. This last weekend was the warm-up for the prestigious event. Thunder Alley is one of the most popular tracks in Southern California. Traction is always good, its friendly on tires when wet, elevation changes are always a plenty and jumps are always big.

The track was completed in 26 hours with features such as a center straight away and a massive 27ft step-up double.

Evans take first EOS 2WD Buggy A-Main

Dustin Evans has taken the opening A-main in 2WD Buggy at the Euro Offroad Series in Sweden heading home Top Qualifier Ryan Cavalieri and Hupo Honigl.  Mixing it with fellow American Cavalieri for much of the race, the Team Losi Racing driver eventually took to the front when Cavalieri came short over the double into the Kyosho corner.  Evans tried a move just after the large Durango double and ended up tangling with Cavalieri, a move the Reedy Race of Champions winner said was a little too aggressive.
