The TQ East Coast Challenge was hosted by Classic RC Raceways in Akron, Ohio with electric and nitro races being held.
The 1/10th electric race saw Team Losi Racing drivers in attendance including Bill Shay, Ben Beard, and Eric Clark competing in 2WD Modified Buggy. TLR would put two TLR 22 Buggies in the A-main final. Eric Clark would take the overall TQ and led the main from wire to wire for the A-main win.
In the 1/8th nitro classes TLR would have Shane Racer and Eric Clark competing in the event. Shane Racer put himself in the A-main with consistent runs in qualifying and a chance at the win in the A-main. After a rough start, Racer put in some great laps to take the lead at the halfway point and take the overall win with Clark ending up 4th overall!!
