SC10GT-E

Jato class, Bobby TQ'd the class, was able to qual in 2nd. Was within 10 foot of Bobby during the mains first couple laps, was thinking I had a chance at 1st. Then, Bobby started putting down some very smooth laps and had a 1/2 lap lead on me. CRASH!!! The sound of two RC's at speed coming together is something very distinctive. Bobby and another racer came together between turn 3 and 4. His motor, nitro powered, died and I was by for the lead and the win.

XXX-S

TQ'd both qual's and finished 1st.
