2019 JConcepts Stock Nationals – Report

The JConcepts Stock Nationals were held at OC RC Raceway in Huntington Beach, California last weekend. Expert 2WD Buggy was the perfect race for Team Associated’s Kyle Layton as he set the TQ and ran away with the win in the 10-minute A-final.

From the very first lap, he was maximum push and lead the way from tone to tone to take a very impressive win. Yokomo’s Jake Thayer also drove brilliantly and displayed his stock speed and finished 5 seconds back from Kyle for 2nd.
