This is the latest news on this IFMAR 1/8 Buggy 2008 World Championship. the chosen track is of course the Farm II at Charlotte NC USA.
Currently the latest result as we managed to find is after the 4th round. Team Losi Mike Truhe is the man to beat. He TQ’ed (top Qualified) with his Losi 8ight buggy and GRP Engine. Coming on the second position is another one from USA, Ryan Cavalieri driving his Team Associated RC8 buggy and Orion engine. On the 3rd spot is Adam Drake with same Losi 8ight buggy and GRP engine as Mike Truhe.
Finally we see something real good happening for the Jammin Products at their website. We still call the buggy as HongNor here. Taylor James as we posted before at Pre World Championship posting, did it with their own made up X1X buggy.
Jammin Products rolled into Charlotte, North Carolina with a few tricks bolted onto Taylor James and Chad Bradley’s X1X Jammin Buggies for the IFMAR Pre-Worlds Race. Taylor James proved that the Jammin Buggy is now the top contender for the IFMAR World Championships to be held later this year by posting Top Qualifier and taking the win in the one hour long Final Main. “With a new chassis layout, the X1X Buggy is faster through the corners and accelerates off the corner quicker. Overall stability is much better.” says Jay Halsey. He also revealed that Jammin Products is planning a Conversion Kit for the X1X and also a complete kit, both coming within the next three months.
Go with Jammin Products and up your game to be a World Contender!!
More info and specifications coming soon.
