Qualifying is over at the ROAR Super Nationals
Qualifying is over and we have gotten through all four rounds of
qualifying and now ROAR is setting up the main events. The track this morning was good and
consistent for the final round. It did
start to dry out a bit for the 1/8th scale class but it don’t make
too much of a difference with the heavy 1/8th cars and the amount of power they can
put down. They are
putting a good amount of water down now which should make the track for the
mains really good throughout.
The guys did a great job in the final round of 2wd with the
TLR 22SCT securing four trucks in the A-main. Big shout out to Matt Castellano for his last
run to make the A-main. He ran solid and
his truck looked great!! I am looking
for the guys’s to be running strong in the mains today.
Dakotah Phend put in another solid run in the 4wd SC class
to put himself third on the grid in the A-main.
He just needs a little more speed to get himself to the front and will
be looking to make a shock change for the mains. We are going to try a two-hole piston instead
of the standard four holes. Mike Truhe
did a great job putting his TEN-SCTE in the A-main. There was some tough luck for Billy Fischer
and Dustin Evans just missing out on making the A-Main.
The final round of 1/8th scale was another
challenging round for the team. Mike
Truhe just couldn’t get going in the last couple of rounds along with Billy
Fischer. Matt Castellano was the only
TLR driver that had a grip on the class putting in a couple of
really nice runs to be the only TLR driver putting his TLR 8IGHT-E 2.0 into
the A-main event. The mains in the 1/8th
class are going to be really challenging with ten cars in the main and a long main events of ten
minutes each where anything can happen.
