This past weekend was JBRL Round #4 at OCRC in Huntington Beach, CA. A\u00a0great turnout once again for the JBRL with 265 entries for the one day event!<\/p>\n

Doug “Casper” Nielsen was able to take a convincing win at round #4 of the JBRL at OCRC Raceway in Huntington Beach, CA in Electric 8th scale. Casper drove his Tekin RX8 Gen2<\/a>, T8i<\/a> \u00a0powered TLR 8ight-E 3.0 to the victory. \u00a0He would start the main in P2\u00a0loosing out on the TQ by only .8sec over TLR teammate David Jenson. At the tone David Jenson would lead the field for the start of the 10 min “A” main. Casper would follow close behind and the two would break away from the pack after a few laps. About 3-4 min into the race David would make a mistake and Casper would be able to capitalize on the mistake and take the point and never look back. TLR\/Tekin <\/a>teammate Ryan Dunford would put in a great run to finish 3rd and take the JBRL points lead with the effort after 4 rounds.<\/p>\n

In Pro-4 Casper would finish a strong 3rd to put him on the podium with TLR teammates David Jenson first and Ryan Dunford 2nd to ensure a TLR podium sweep with the SCTE 2.0. Both Casper and Dunford chose the Tekin Rx8 Gen2<\/a> and Pro4<\/a> line of motors.<\/p>\n
