Remarks – Current 2wd World Champion and Arizona native Spencer Rivkin is racing the Associated RC8B3 here at the Fear Farm. Having tested extensively prior to this event in both California and Las Vegas with new 1/8th development staff member Dan Hissam they have changed a lot on the setup side with relation to roll centres, anti-roll bars and weight transfer. Spencer is running Reedy’s new all metal case and gear servo, the RS2207A, to control the car, while for traction he has chosen the JConcepts Triple Dees for qualifying and with the track expect to rut up for the finals he will then switch to Diamond Bars.
