Ryan Cavalieri to Compete at EOS in April

Two-time World Champion Ryan Cavalieri is to participate in the Euro Offroad Series pilot event in Sweden on 1-3 April. The 24-year-old reigning 4WD US National Champion will lead the Associated drivers that includes former European Champion Peter Pinisch and Petit RC Race winner Paul Bradby adding to the line-up that includes 2011 Reedy International Race of Champions winner Dustin Evans as well as other official entries from TLR, Tamiya and Team Durango.
Commenting on the latest big name driver announcement, EOS Race Director Scotty Ernst said, ‘We are so excited that Team Associated are sending Ryan Cavalieri to our pilot event and together with TLR confirming Dustin Evans’ entry it is a massive endorsement for the EOS and what we are trying to create for 1:10 off-road in Europe. The quality of the entry is going to make for great racing and with most of the top guys also doing Short Course Truck I think we can really showcase this class which back in the US has done great things for our hobby.
In addition to the regular 2WD and 4WD buggy classes, the three-day schedule will also include Short Course Truck. 2WD SCT will be restricted to using stock RTR electronics with the speed controller and motor open in 4WD. One interesting SCT entry is that of three time 1:12 World Champion David Spashett who is now responsible for looking after TLR’s racing affairs in Europe and will attend next month’s event to support team drivers Dustin Evans and Martin Bayer.
The EOS pilot race will set the stage for a full multi round series beginning in November and already over 170 entries have been received including current double European Champion Lee Martin and his Tamiya team-mates Marc Rheinard and Viktor Wilck, Team Durango’s Hupo Hönigl and Jörn Neumann and Kyosho’s young Swedish star David Ronnefalk.
