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.
