Team Losi Racing Success at JBRL Electric Series Round 2

This past weekend kicked of round 2 of the JBRL Electric Series at one of the nicest RC facility in southern California, Palm Desert R/C Raceway.  With the first round of the electric series hitting a new record with 385 entries, no one knew what to expect at round 2.  Well, round 2 was very close with a total of 355 entries which was really good to see the series staying strong.  The track crew did a super job putting together one of the best layouts I have driver in sometime.  This could also have to do with running electric outdoors on wet track, which is something that doesn’t happen much here in southern California these days.


The Team Losi Racing team had a great showing at Round 2 winning seven classes including Mod and Stock.  All of the TLR vehicles were on point this weekend on the super slippery wet track that was  even tough for the pros to get around.

Team Losi Racing Podiums at 2WD Spanish Nationals

At the end of March, the 2nd round of the 2WD Spanish National Championship took place in Jerez de la Frontera, Spain with almost 70 drivers. Ramon was in attendance to race and provide support to all the Team Losi Racing drivers.

Practice rounds were on Saturday with the five rounds of qualifying and the finals on Sunday. Strange weather (from rain to hot sun) allowed the track conditions to change every round proving to be difficult to get the right set up. Ramon did his best and qualified 5th for the A-Final.

Trought the three legs of finals with the Team Losi Racing 22 Kit, Ramon would end up with a total of 8 points placing him 3rd place overall.

This past weekend kicked off round 1 of the JBRL Nitro Series in Beaumont, CA at Thunder Alley R/C Raceway.
