As the summer months are winding down, this past
weekend held the annual "Summer Shootout" event at the R/C Race Barn
in Jefferson City, Missouri. The event drew a considerable crowd to the
spacious indoor offroad facility, with great racing in all classes. Team Losi
Racing driver, Mike Garrison, made the journey with his TLR SCTE 2.0 to compete
in the Expert 4wd SCT class.
Qualifying included three 5-minute rounds, using
"rocket round" scoring. The track was dry and slippery by the time
the 4wd SCT classes hit the track, but the smooth power of Novak's Pulse
ESC/Ballistic 4.5 motor and grippy JConcepts Green Barcode tires had the TLR
machine of Garrison working great.
Mike would go on to take the TQ spot in qualifying, and using the new Venom 5800mAh LiPo pack, he would go on to win the extended Expert 4wd SCT A-Main, leading start to finish!
Mike would like to thank all of his sponsors: TLR, Horizon Hobby, JConcepts, Novak, Spektrum,Venom, MIP, Avid R/C, StickIt1 Racing, OGIO, and LiveRC.
