‘There is no extra pressure’ – Rivkin
Spencer Rivkin will defend his 2WD Buggy World Championship title over the coming week. It’s something the Team Associated driver has successfully done before but this time the offroad star gets the opportunity to do it right at home – literally. HobbyAction in Chandler is the venue for the return of the 1:10 Offroad World Championships following its forced Covid break and it has been the home track of the offroad star who has just recently bought himself a house in Chandler. Speak to anyone with an ounce of knowledge about RC racing and few would bet against Rivkin delivering a third title. For many that weight could be overwhelming but not Rivkin, excited for track owner Larry Tom to get to host the World Championship, he says the 19th IFMAR Worlds presents ‘no extra pressure’ for him as a racer.
