The event was held in Touring Modified and Stock classes with the Oval category not being run this time due to the track layout.

| Kenny Kong wins at Dog Days of Summer race 2 Posted: 24 Apr 2018 07:11 AM PDT The recent Dog Days of Summer round 2, hosted by The Track in Gaithersburg, Maryland, was run with a somewhat condensed format of only two qualifiers and a single bump-up A-main. With around 110 entries the traction had really come up between qualifying rounds and especially for the mains, a lot of people would start to have issues with traction rolling. From the tone Kenny Kong (Yokomo) was leading the 4WD Buggy race, however after a troubled opening laps it was Adam Vink (Xray) in 2nd. Adam got right behind Kenny and tried making a pass, but tapped a pipe and didn’t have enough time to catch back up to him. Ultimately it was Kenny in 1st with Adam 2nd and Tekno driver Paul Rush in 3rd. Frank Deiny and Omar Ladenburg would round out the top 5. Source: Xray [teamxray.com] |

| T-Works MBX8 CF shock towers & arm stiffeners Posted: 24 Apr 2018 02:28 AM PDT Coming from T-Works and made for the Mugen MBX8 buggy are new carbon fibre front and rear shock towers as well as carbon fibre A-arm stiffeners. Starting with the shock towers, the parts are machined from high-quality 4mm carbon fibre and are understood to utilise the standard kit geometry. The towers are light of weight and due to their different flex characteristics compared to the standard items, they can improve handling on slippery surfaces. The shock stays are available separately or as a complete set including the front and rear tower. Also new are carbon fibre A-arm inserts for the MBX8. The inserts will reduce the natural flex of the arms which can be beneficial in a range of track and temperature conditions. The inserts are machined from high-quality carbon fibre and are available as a complete set or separately for the front or rear. Source: T-Works [rc-tworks.com] |
