Following the conclusion of the carpet indoor season at CRC Raceway in Rome, NY I started thinking of what classes I would run for the summer. I knew I would continue 2wd Short Course, but I needed another. I have always ran two. I toyed with returning to 1/8 nitro buggy after running it for […]

Kevin Through the long winter months, I was struggling to figure out what class I wanted to focus on running this summer for outdoor season. I was getting tired of looking at Short Course trucks.

Team Durango DEX408 – Build up
April 20th, 2013 Matt I recently relocated from Central NY to sunny Florida. One thing I knew about the racing scene down here before I even moved was that the biggest classes by far were 1/8 scale buggies, both nitro and electric. Last summer, I built and tested the Caster Racing EX1.5R. But as the season wound down, I […]
Atomik V2MR 2WD Buggy Review
April 15th, 2013 Kevin When Kevin said he was going to get the new Atomik V2MR buggy for a build and review I was excited to see it and test it out. Then he told me his idea was for me to run it at Motorama in Pennsylvania. My excitement went away. I hadn’t ran a 2wd buggy since […]

Motorama 2013 Full Event Recap
March 17th, 2013 Kevin I don’t think there is another r/c racing event quite like Motorama in the US, perhaps even in the world. Where else do they run 2 tracks at the same time, get 700+ entries between them, and run it at a place where racers can watch Motocross, Quads, see car shows, robot fighting, go karts, […]
