Repeat double for Maifield at Psycho Nitro Blast

Ryan Maifield pulled off a repeat of his 2024 Psycho Nitro Blast double by once again taking his Teknos to the Nitro Buggy and Nitro Truggy wins at the 18th edition of the Tennessee based indoor race over the weekend.  Attracting almost 1000 entries, qualifying would see Maifield secure the TQ in both categories.  In Nitro Truggy the defending champion topped both rounds to secure pole ahead of Kyosho’s Ryan Lutz and the Tekno’s of Jared Tebo.  In Nitro Buggy it was Team Associated’s Brandon Rose who took Q1 ahead of the Sworkz of European Champion Juan Carlos Canas but with a faster Q2 topping time Maifield would lead away the 18 buggy field in the half hour Main.  With the Truggy final up first, Maifield took the win from new Sparko signing Lee Setser who came through from 12th on the grid with fourth place qualifier Mason Fuller completing the Top 3.  In Buggy, Fuller went one better with his Sworkz finishing runner up to Maifield, the gap at the finish 10.3-seconds.  Seth VanDalen completed the podium ahead Lutz, Rose and Canas.  Fuller would complete his move up the podium by wrapping up the event with the eBuggy victory ahead of Canas and Maifield.
