Butterfield doubles at ROAR Onroad Nitro Nationals
Serpent’s Bryce Butterfield completed a title double at the 2024 ROAR Onroad Nitro Nationals regaining his 1:10 title he lost last year and adding the 1:8 title to his CV. With rain reducing track time at the Tri-State Radio Controlled Auto Racers hosted event in Ohio, in qualifying for 1:10 200mm Butterfield would top 2 of the 3 rounds to secure the TQ from the Infinity of DJ Apolaro and the Serpent of defending champion Jose Almonte P3. In 1:8 again it was Butterfield with the TQ from the Mugen Seiki of Ralph Burch and Apolaro. In the 1:10 final, with Apolaro going out early Butterfield would take a convincing win from David Dunn. Also a 45-minute encounter, in 1:8 Apolaro would lead the first half of the race with Birch an early retirement. Posting the fastest lap of the race however Butterfield would hit the front in the second half to do the double taking the title with a 2-lap advantage over Apolaro with Joachim Bruneau completing the podium.
