Rivkin, Tessmann & Evans win at Desert Classic

This past weekend the annual Desert Classic was held at Hobby Action RC Raceway in Arizona. The track has a very unique type of dirt that provides extremely high traction, that even increased during the weekend, and then the surface breaks up a little bit which can make it edgy and very challenging.
