Florida Carpet C/ship wins for Champlin & Orlowski

The 2024 JConcepts Florida Carpet Championship at Beachline Raceway in Orlando saw wins for Schumacher pairing Michal Orlowski and Broc Champlin, with 2WD winner Champlin also crowned overall Champion of the annual event & denying his team-mate a 3-in-row.  In 2WD Mod Buggy qualifying it was Champlin who secured the TQ topping 3 of the 4 rounds with Q4 winner Bruno Coelho putting his Xray 2nd ahead of Orlowski and Team Associated’s Spencer Rivkin.  In 4WD, three TQ runs gave Orlowski the overall top spot with Coelho again securing P2 having set the pace in Q3 with his Xray team-mate Tom Rinderknecht P3 from Champlin and Norway’s Daniel Kobbevik.  In the finals, A1 of 2WD would see Orlowski get the win from Champlin but the American capitalised on his TQ in A2 & 3 to win both and take the overall ahead of Orlowski with Coelho completing the podium.  In 4WD, A1 saw 2023 winner Coelho take a late win but Orlowski made amends in the next two encounters to take the overall with Champlin runner up and Coelho again filling the final step on the podium.  With the Schumacher drivers both tied on points, a thrilling Super Pole was held to break the tie, which Champlin claimed to become the overall Modified Champion of the Florida Carpet Championship.
