4/6/10 - OCRC: OFNA pilot Jeremy Kortz made some free time to drive down So Cal for OCRC racing action with his Hyper 10sc and the Hyper 9e.  With 11 heats and close to 100 entries it would be a long night as Kortz showing that his Hyper 10sc with AKA rubber was the fastest on the track for the 4wd pro class, with a TQ of 13/5:02 just missing the 14 lap run and also taking the win in strong fashion.  And it was also Kortz taking the win with the Hyper 9e, starting in the P-2 spot behind Robert Black also driving the Hyper 9e.  The battle between RB and Kortz was the show for the first half of the 8 minute race as Kortz was pacing with Black around the track and trying to pull away from the rest of the field.  But at the halfway mark Robert started to have a mechanical problem that caused him to lose the lead to Kortz which striking distance was only less than a car length away, Kortz took full charge from there as he eased his way from the rest of the pack.  No challenges were made on Kortz as he took the 2nd win for the night giving him the double tap and a TQ. Kortz told me "My Hypers struck like a Viper!"

So in quest for a track that was a different feel for racing short course we headed over to Revelation Raceway for our Hyper 10sc and Jammin SCRT10 SC trucks to compete on a large and demanding track, with a big line-drive double, a landmine section, high speed banked sweeper,double step-up table-top,long 160' straight and a huge 30' triple we got more than we can handle. Losi Series race #2 was also on that day which turned out to be more than 100 entries for the day as we raced from the day into the night with dark clouds overhead for a shot of rain but none came. 5minute quals. and a 8minute main for the SC trucks, Jon Anderson in the SCRT-10 had the TQ spot with Paul Freyer starting 2nd with the Hyper and Louie Fernandez 3rd also with a Hyper. As the single file start got underway into the first turn the option of running the second lane into the first jump scattered the trucks as the broke away only to pile back together coming out of turn 3 for the dash for the lead, Anderson had the lead for most of the race and DJ coming from the #6 position was making a charge for the leader. But the track was taking it toll on the trucks as Anderson made a mistake for DJ to grab the lead and Louie Fernandez advancing also to the #2 spot charging for the lead as Anderson fell back to 3rd, but in the end DJ wins the 8min. race  and #2 Louie and #3 Jon finished for the podium spots. Tough track with outstanding results of durability from both OFNA trucks no suspension failures during the race, some tried for the big triple but were unable the stick the landing but kept on going nice try Jon, Paul and DJ better luck next time.

3/31/10 - WCRC: This is your 11 o'clock report from WCRC Raceway, we more on the Pro 4wd race. Jimmy Wright from Track Star Services driving the Jammin SCRT-10 takes the TQ with a 13/5:13 qualifier and Jake Partridge takes the win also with SCRT-10. It was a sure handed win for Jimmy Wright as he drove away from the rest of the field in the 7 min. main but it may have been his battery that didn't have enough to make the final lap, the race was really for 2nd as Jesse R, Nick Vivas and Jake Partridge were battling it out over and over changing positions left and right but the first casualty was Jesse as his car suffered a problem that left the racing between Nick and Jake while Jimmy was looking for the victory, too bad it wasn't a 5 min. race, so when Jimmy's car stalled the 2nd and 3rd place runners were closing for the pass and the lead over Jimmy. Nick had the lead and made a minor mistake with Jake on his bumper  to overtake the lead and the win.

Good fought battle guys but make sure you can go 7min. as Jake surely had the juice to win.

It was the Grass Roots Series #2 at Hemet RC and 4wd SC was making another strong showing for the series as the podium was filled with OFNA Sc trucks,as the qualifying was fast and fierce and the track was very technical with rhythm doubles a deep washboard section and a massive big air double that made SC trucks a challenge to get over, you had to make the least mistakes to get on top of the board. At the end of qualifiers DJ stood on top for the A-main with the Hyper 10SC  with Jon Anderson in the Jammin SCRT10 right behind with the fastest lap in the qualifier, as the A-main got underway with a full ten car race DJ and Jon managed to to get away from the rest of the field, DJ however made a few more mistakes than Jon in the race and continued to pull away from the 2nd place driver for the win, 3rd place went to Mitchell Taylor he was also driving the Jammin SCRT10, good work guys and hope to here from you at Grass Roots #3 at Thunder Alley.
