Jared Kyosho buggy

The 2010 ROAR 1/8 Scale Off-Road Nationals were held June 23-27 at Colorado Fast Track in Colorado Springs, CO. The extremely hot temperatures and high elevation would put all engines to the test. Team Orion had their “Big 4″ US Drivers in attendance: Jared Tebo, Ryan Cavalieri, Mike Truhe, and Cody King to try and capture Team Orion’s first ever 1/8 National Championship.

At the start of the 1-Hour A-Main Event a first lap pile up allowed Jared Tebo to go from 4th to 2nd by the end of the first lap. Tebo’s Team Orion powered Kyosho MP9 TKI-2 was on rails posting many of the fastest laps of the race. At the halfway point, Tebo had opened up an 11 second lead on 2nd place. Once again, Team Orion’s Joe Pillars and Kyosho’s Steven Daniluk made fast and consistant pit stops to help keep Tebo out front.

At the end of the 1-Hour A-Main Event, Tebo was the only driver to make it by for the extra 93rd lap and to take the win by over 15 seconds. This gave Jared and Team Orion their 2nd 1/8 Scale National Championship and the Clean Sweep for the weekend. Mike Truhe battled back to finish a very strong 3rd place finish landing him on the podium! Cody King put on a late race charge to finish 4th, his best Nationals finish to date.

Israeli 2007 Buggy Series Finals

On Friday, 29.6.07, the last race of the Israeli national 1/8 scale series took place at the Hot Wheels Race track. Race director and head referee was Dan Price, who was helped by Nir Sivan.

The results of the race determined the overall results of the season, and a few surprises in the race shuffled the final positions. Racing conditions were extremely hard as the temperature was about 34deg Celsius, and the track was very dry. Thus, the race was though, and the drivers had to work hard throughout the race. Even during the A mains, a few derivers had engine cuts, and two drivers had to retire due to technical problems.
