Here's my recap of The Wicked Weekend:
 

In Pro Nitro Buggy, I qualified P1 in the 20 minute B Main. At the start, I lead the first 7 minutes until my first pit stop. My Reds R7 Evoke was screaming, but I still has plenty of untouched power that I hadn't quite squeezed out of it. So when I came to pit, I was bone dry and stalled on exit. I got fired back up and restarted P6. 1 lap later, I was up to P4. Suddenly my steering began to fade and soon I couldn't go any further. The Savox couldn't handle my driving so with 9 minutes to go, I pulled off. My TLR 8ight 3.0 was on rails with Sweep Dirt Effect in Blue compound! I've never been more comfortable with a nitro buggy ever. Even with my R7 still running rich, it was still pulling people on the front straight! 

In Pro E Buggy, I qualified P4 in the A Main. We ran Triple 10 minute A Mains (best 2 outta 3). I finished 7th, 4th, and 3rd, which put me P4 overall by 2 points. My Hobbywing powered TLR 8ight 3.0e dazzled the crowd as it was the only car the whole weekend the could perfectly downside the quad on the left side after turn 1.
