Kyle McBride takes 2WD and 4WD at the 1/10th EP Australian Nationals

This past week the 1/10th EP Australian Nationals were hosted by my home track, Chargers RC race club. My B5M was easy to drive and quick right out of the gate. I managed to TQ all four rounds of qualifying, and once finals came around, I dominated A1 and A2 to take the 2WD National championship. My Reedy electronics performed perfectly all week.

Next up was 4WD. We were allowed one practice round in the morning and straight into the same qualifying and finals setup. The track had really come up to a very high traction, even more so than in 2WD. My 4WD ended up being great from the 1st qualifier and I took the TQ by a large margin. I managed to take the overall TQ, having won three out of the four qualifiers, and we had the car at a pretty good setup for the finals. I managed to win the first two A mains once again to take the 4WD championship!

Thanks to Kyle and Scott McBride for this report.
