Drake is "Dialed" at the 2012 Dialed Inc. Off Road Championship

The 2012 Dialed Inc. Off Road Championships is an all-new event that was held last weekend Shreveport, Louisiana at T&T Speedway.  The classes consisted of 2wd/4wd Short course, 1/8th electric buggy/truck, 1/8th nitro buggy/truck, and a special invitational class based off the Reedy Race format - six heats of 10min duration, truck on Saturday and buggy on Sunday.  They also used gates starts to add a little excitement to the invitational class.  The track was built by Joey from The Dirt and a crew of helpers from the local area.

In the invitation class racers battled six times with buggy and six times with truck.  The finishing order was based off the best 4 out of 6 finishes to determine the overall class winner.  Then your 4 best scores from each class were added together to determine the overall Invitational Champion.  Truck was raced on Saturday and Team Losi Racing / Nova Rossi / Pro-line driver Adam Drake couldn’t have asked for a better day with winning all six of his 10 minute races and being crowned the Truck Champion.  On Sunday the buggy racing kicked off after a short practice session.  Drake was able to win 4 out of his 6 buggy races and set the overall fastest time to win the overall buggy title.  By winning both truck and buggy Drake was crowned the  Dialed Inc. Invitational Champion.
