LRP TQs and Wins 2011 IFMAR 2WD World Championships
Qualifying for the triple leg A finals would see Team Associated/LRP driver Neil Cragg first on the grid after qualifying with team mates Ryan Cavalieri and Ryan Maifield would start in the second and third places respectively. There were five drivers running LRP speed controls in the A final, which was more than any other manufacturer in the main event.
Spectators and fellow drivers lined the fence, convinced that this was a World Championship like no other as they watched the epic battles from start to finish during the three finals. After A1 and A2 were complete, the door was still wide open for the 2011 2WD title and it would take a near-perfect run in A3 to be crowned the 2011 World Champ. During warm-up for leg three, Neil broke and was unable to start the race, giving Ryan Cavalieri a clear view of the first turn. With a nose-to-tail battle for the entire final, Ryan Cavalieri would come out on top with a hard-charging Ryan Maifield just one second behind. LRP drivers Naoto Matsukura and Peter Pinisch also made the A final and finished eighth and tenth place respectively. Congratulations to LRP factory driver Ryan Cavalieri on his 2011 1:10 2WD IFMAR World Championship.
