The 24th Annual April Fools Classic was once again held in\u00a0Magna, Utah. Racers from all over the neighboring states would come and attend. Over 180 entries prove that this is one race that simply cannot be missed!<\/p>\n

Tekin<\/a> team driver Jason Smith was a man on a mission. Jason would Tq and take a hard earned win in the 13.5 Stadium Truck class with his Tekin\u00a0<\/a>RS Pro’s<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Redline 13.5<\/a>\u00a0powered T4.1. The class was super competitive with over 3 full heats of racers all trying to take a spot on the podium.<\/p>\n

Aaron Eastman would start off in the 6th position after some very close qualifying in the 2wd 13.5 Buggy Class. From his mid pack position Aaron would battle up to the 2nd position where he would finish. Aaron’s B4.1 was powered by a Tekin RS<\/a> and Redline 13.5<\/a> motor.<\/div>\n

Jason again was in the hunt for the win starting from his 2nd place position after qualifying. Again this class was deep with 30+ entries. The top 6 drivers would all finish on the same lap from start to finish. When the race was over Jason Smith would take the win with his Tekin\u00a0<\/a>RS Pro’s<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Redline 13.5\u00a0<\/a>Powered B44.1. Fellow teammate Aaron Eastman would also make the A main and finish 6th.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

In 4wd SC Jason would battle from the 3rd position and would battle with Adrian Redding(AE) changing positions at least 10 times. Jason would end up 2nd overall. Teammate Aaron Eastman would be right on Jason’s tail crossing the line in 3rd only .2 of a second behind! Aaron had this to say “my Rx8 and pro4 4600 was by far\u00a0the fastest truck out there with enough power to pull wheelies on command.”<\/p>\n

Jason was using the\u00a0Tekin Rx8\u00a0<\/a>and\u00a0Pro 4 4000kv<\/a>\u00a0motor in his Team Durango Desc410r SC truck while Aaron was using a\u00a0Tekin Rx8<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Pro 4 4600kv<\/a>\u00a0in his AE Sc10 4wd.\u00a0 <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
