Lemieux wins US Buggy Championships

The 6th running of the US Buggy Championships took place at Trackside Hobbies in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, over the weekend with Chase Lemieux completing the buggy double.  A track famed for once being owned by the ‘Voice of RC’ Scotty Ernst, this year’s event attracted 220 entries.  In qualifying Lemieux, the son of former international onroad ace Paul, would take the TQ honours with Tyler Whitt his closest rival in both 2WD and 4WD.  Decided over single A-Mains, the Xray driver would fully capitalise on pole position winning 2WD by 2-seconds from the Xray of Whitt with Casey Blasczyk completing the podium.  In 4WD, again Lemieux led home Whitt over the 8-minute main with Matt Sunderlage finishing third.
