Race report by Brennan Schimmel
Yesterday my family and I headed to Thunder Alley in Wilson NC. Shout out to Luis Diego on the killer track layout. I ran nitro buggy nitro truggy and e buggy. During practice we got all 3 XRAY cars set up and ready for qualifying. Qualifying went great as I TQed nitro buggy and nitro truggy, and qualified 3rd in e buggy. First up was nitro buggy. In the start of the race Austin Woodyard and I moves away from the pack and I made a small bobble and Austin took the corner. I kept in touch for part of the race but had to do a extra pit and some trouble with lap traffic, but at the end I would take 2nd overall.

Second main was nitro truggy and In the start of the race i clipped a pipe and dropped to about 5th I worked my way back up and battled with Michael Kramer for a few minutes and started to check out and go on the lap the field to take the overall win. Last up was e buggy and when the tone went off I immediately jumped to first and had a 2 corner lead on the rest of the pack. 2 minutes in and the computer software glitched so we had to restart. So once again I got out front quickly and was uncontested the rest of the race having about half a lap on the rest of the field.

Thanks to all my friends family and sponsors for all they do for me to race toy cars. I couldn't ask for a better group of supporters.

Also thanks to Brian Lewis for some set up help over text for the conditions. Greatly appreciated.
