Due & Brown take Mod titles in Wisconsin
Hosted by S&N’s Trackside Hobbies in Milwaukee, WI, the Wisconsin Off-Road Championships brought racers together from across the Midwest. With 27 heats of intense racing, the small 80 x 40, super high-bite track surface meant very tight racing and lots of excitement throughout the weekend. Qualifying proved to be extremely close with most positions separated by just tenths of a second and saw Chad Due take his Factory Team B4, T4 and B44 to the TQ position in the 2WD Mod, Truck Mod and 4WD Mod classes, with Washington’s own Scott Brown following closely behind in all three classes. In the single leg Truck Mod final, Chad Due was able to use his TQ honors to pull away slightly from Scott early, but with a small bobble on one of the first few laps, allowed Scott to take his Factory Team T4 to the front and run mistake free the rest of the way to victory, leaving Chad trailing closely behind, taking 2nd overall. The 2WD Mod class saw Chad Due drive his Factory Team B4 flawlessly, taking victories in the first 2 legs, securing the Championship, with Scott Brown able to cruise to victory in A3 to take 2nd overall. The 4WD Mod class saw a dominant drive from Chad Due, with Scott Brown and local star “Nick the Quick” Achterkirch completing the podium positions.
