CJ Jelin TQs & wins at Fall Brawl Posted: 16 Oct 2018 06:40 AM PDT The 2018 Fall Brawl was held at AMain’s Silver Dollar RC Raceway in Chico, California. The race had 77 entries and in the 1/8th Nitro Buggy class it was Xray’s CJ Jelin who took the overall TQ courtesy of winning Q2 and Q3. Before the A-main CJ had to sit down and readjust his buggy’s engine as he was loosing mileage through the day. As the main was mixed with E-buggies the organisers decided to go with nine minutes runtime. CJ had the lead for the first couple of minutes until he had went wide and Mason Eppley (Tekno) passed him. Now Mason was in 1st and CJ had pit that lap to, so there was a big gap. Mason crashed on one of the back jumps and CJ was back on him and he still had to pit. From that moment on CJ drove clean for the rest of the race to take the win in Pro Nitro Buggy with Mason Eppley 2nd and Xray’s Evan Carton 3rd. Source: Xray [teamxray.com] |
