This first class race facility will host the 2016 IFMAR 1/8 Nitro Buggy World Championships next year and with perfect weather conditions and over 450 total entries, it was going to be a great weekend of racing. The 1/8th E-Buggy class saw a single 10-Minute A-Main event. Kyosho’s Jared Tebo would take full advantage of his 2nd position on the grid and pace Mugen’s Ace Robert Batlle for the first couple minutes of the race. Batlle made a small mistake in the centre of the track and Tebo got by for the lead. A hard charging Ryan Lutz would make things interesting at the later stages of the race, but Tebo would stay strong and hold on for the win. Tekno RC’s Lutz would finish 2nd and HB’s Ty Tessman made a great comeback to finish up on the podium in 3rd.
