8ight 3.0 Sweeps the podium at AKA Spring Series

Chula Vista R/C Race Club hosted round four of the AKA Spring Series on Saturday May 18th.  The event had 100 entries.  Adam Drake tq’ed truck and buggy with his Nova Rossi powered 8ight 3.0 and 8ight T 2.0 equipped with Pro-Line tires.  In the buggy class, Mark Pavidis lined up second  for the thirty minute final followed by Carson Wernimont in third.  Drake took the victory in both finals by more than a lap.  Drake’s Nova Rossi Keep Off 4 and Keep Off 7 engines provided him with tons of power and exceptional fuel mileage that made it easy to do 10 minute fuel stops in the finals.  Adam used Pro-Line Blockades for buggy and Holeshots for truck.
