From the Top Qualifying position at the 2005 1/10th IFMAR Off-Road World Championship with the BJ4 to most recently taking 2 TQ rounds at the 1/8th IFMAR Worlds in Pattaya Thailand, this duo has been one of the most consistent and dynamic pairings on the racing circuit in both 1/10th and 1/8th off-road. Already a 7-time ROAR National Champion, Maifield and JConcepts have won countless titles together and look forward to an even brighter future. Maifield had this to say about the deal:
It’s been an amazing ride for me with JConcepts since 2004. I can’t imagine a better relationship for a driver / accessory company than I have with JConcepts. With a complete line of accessories, JConcepts has really stepped up their game and have helped take my racing to the next level. A lot of their products are focused on starting new trends or pushing the limit which is exactly what a racer is looking for. With JConcepts, I feel I have a competitive advantage, for sure.
