Tq Ryan Lutz would battle it out with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.teamtekin.com\/\"><strong>Tekin<\/strong><\/a> teammate JR Mitch for the first 5 minutes. Lutz would bobble giving JR the lead while falling back to 3rd. Lutz would battle back and get close but never make pass. JR would take A1. A2 Lutz would pull a gap but JR Mitch was on a mission, catching Ryan around the 6 minute mark. JR would push hard but a few too many little mistakes wouldn&#8217;t allow JR to capitalize and make a pass. Lutz would take A2. A3 would be a bit rougher as the track had slowed creating a lot more traffic in the back of the field. This would allow Ryan to create a gap and lead tone to tone without pressure. This would give Ryan Lutz the overall, Jr Mitch 2nd, Denny 3rd, Dickerson 4th, and Harrison 5th. 4 of the top 5 would be running the award winning <a href=\"http:\/\/www.teamtekin.com\/rx8.html\"><strong>Tekin Rx8 Gen2 Esc<\/strong><\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.teamtekin.com\/t8.html\"><strong>T8 Gen2<\/strong><\/a> line of motors.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2368\" style=\"width: 635px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.teamtekin.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/E-Buggy.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2368\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-2368 \" src=\"http:\/\/www.teamtekin.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/E-Buggy-1024x694.jpg\" alt=\"L-R Harrison,Mitch,Lutz,Denny,Dickerson\" width=\"625\" height=\"423\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.teamtekin.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/E-Buggy-1024x694.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.teamtekin.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/E-Buggy-300x203.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.teamtekin.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/E-Buggy-221x150.jpg 221w, https:\/\/www.teamtekin.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/E-Buggy-150x102.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.teamtekin.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/E-Buggy.jpg 1502w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 625px) 100vw, 625px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-2368\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">L-R Harrison,Mitch,Lutz,Denny,Dickerson<\/p><\/div>\n<p>E Truggy was a close battle. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.teamtekin.com\/\"><strong>Tekin<\/strong><\/a> factory driver would take advantage of his P2 qualifying \u00a0position and make short work in both A1 and A2 taking the win in each over the field. \u00a0Martin chose the award winning <a href=\"http:\/\/www.teamtekin.com\/rx8.html\"><strong>Rx8 Gen2 esc<\/strong><\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.teamtekin.com\/t8.html\"><strong>T8 Gen2 2000kv<\/strong><\/a> motor.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.teamtekin.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/E-Truggy.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-2370 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.teamtekin.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/E-Truggy.jpg\" alt=\"E Truggy\" width=\"624\" height=\"464\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.teamtekin.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/E-Truggy.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.teamtekin.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/E-Truggy-300x223.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.teamtekin.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/E-Truggy-202x150.jpg 202w, https:\/\/www.teamtekin.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/E-Truggy-150x111.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 624px) 100vw, 624px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>4wd Short Course truck would be another <a href=\"http:\/\/www.teamtekin.com\/\"><strong>Tekin<\/strong><\/a> teammate battle.
