Cavalieri On Top at Kyosho Fall Classic

Wednesday, Nov 23, 2011 at 12:00am UTC

Revelation Raceway in Montclair, CA played host to the annual Kyosho Fall Classic. With the track being just down the 91 freeway from many top Southern California racers and manufacturers, competition is always guaranteed. This year, Ryan Cavalieri took his dual ROAR National Champion vehicles, the Team Associated RC8.2 and RC8T, to the event and met up with teammates Richard Saxton and Chad Nevin.

With a dominating performance in Expert Truggy qualifying, Cavalieri started on pole for the 20-minute main and never looked back. With a substantial lead halfway through, Cavalieri paced the field and ended up some 30 seconds ahead of second place at the finish.

In the Expert Buggy class, things were a bit closer. Starting from his third-place qualifying position, Cavalieri fell back early. With determination and focus, Cavalieri worked his way back through the field and with just a few laps remaining in the 30-minute A-Main final, took over the lead. Cavalieri came across the line just one second ahead of second place, giving him a clean sweep of the event.

Congratulations goes out to Expert Buggy A-Main finalist for Team Associated, Chad Nevin (eighth), and Richard Saxton (thirteenth), proving once again that the RC8.2 buggy is a worthy competitor.
