Ryan Maifield Victorious at ROAR Nationals Warm-Up

Ryan Maifield has won the 1:8 buggy warm-up race in preparation for the 2011 ROAR Nationals. Drivers converged at Thunder Alley in Beaumont, California for the ROAR 1:8 Nationals warm-up race.  It was a great time for the fastest drivers to get some wheel time at the normally elevation heavy, rhythmical Southern California track. The TA track crew did their usual terrific job of staying on top of the conditions while keeping it slightly wet for the qualifiers and main events.

Ryan Maifield put down the fastest runs in qualifying earning the TQ in the 1:8 buggy pro class. Sitting out front, Ryan took on the daunting challenge of the 60-minute A final leading from “wire to wire”, making just one mistake during the hour and crossed the finish-line in first with Ty Tessmann second and Jared Tebo in third. Equipped with JConcepts all weekend Ryan’s RC8B was decked out with Punisher body, Illuzion HD rear wing and the versatile Hybrid tyre.
