Race Report by Ethan Lefebvre
I had a great day of racing at the 2018 ROAR Region 9 Championship at Thornhill Racing Circuit!
I decided to race both nitro classes this time and take a break from E buggy.

In qualifying I was able to take TQ in the first round for both classes. In the second round my buddyâ™s Rocco Margiotta would get TQ in truck and Tyler Hooks would get Buggy. Third round I knew was going to be hard and whoever won would get TQ. I was able to get a clean run in truck and finish with TQ and the overall TQ. In Buggy Tyler and I had a very close battle through the hole qualifier but I was able to just take the win and overall TQ in Buggy also!

In the mains I was able to get clean starts in both and lead both from start to finish to give me a double Region 9 Championship!
