‘From Race Control’ – Day 1 of 4WD Buggy

Drivers

Today is the first day of action for the 4WD Electric Offroad World Championships in Chico. The schedule here at the Silver Dollar R/C Raceway is 10 rounds of practice with drivers running in 15 car heats for practice. The final round of those practice runs which is due to get underway at 17:00 local time will be controlled and will be used to determine the seeding of the 10 car heats for tomorrow’s 4 of 5 rounds of qualifying. Thankfully a dry track means no delayed start like we witnessed on the opening day of 2WD and in terms of the track layout the only change from earlier in the week is a modification to the down ramp of the table top after the main straight.

After the recent ISTC World Championships in California, Red RC gets ready to switches from electric power to nitro power as well as travel to the other side of the World to bring you coverage of the 10th edition of the IFMAR 1:10 Nitro World Championship. With support from Maxima RC Racing Fuel, T-Work’s Asia, Rapicon Max Power RC Fuel, SMART-Workshop, and Infinity, we are excited to be returning to Huge RC Circuit in Bangkok, Thailand, the track of former ISTC World Champion Suirkan Chaidajsuriya hosting the WC for a second time. In 2014 we got to witness Alexander Hagberg claim his first & Xray’s second World title at this unique (and huge!) indoor track. With 2024 a year that we have already seen two historic World title hat tricks, will we see Infinity’s Tadahiko Sahashi become the first ever driver to defend their 1:10 Nitro title? Our coverage starts on November 19 (Tuesday) and runs through to Saturday’s title deciding 1-hour final. We looking forward to you following along as IFMAR crowns its final World Champion of 2024.
