FSORS Report
Gene Hickerson
¡@
The 8th and final round of the 2009 Florida State Off Road Series was
held at the world famous Lake Park in Lutz Florida. All of FL's fastest
drivers were there for one last change to practice and prepare for the
ROAR Nationals the following week. It rained Friday, so not many
practiced on the technical layout. The 1st round of qualifying on
Saturday was still wet but getting better. I raced my old Matrix buggy
to save my new CEN Matrix R2 for the Nats. Billy Easton took TQ. In the
2nd round, the rains came again. After a 2 hour break, only some went
out for round 2. Leon McIntosh took the TQ in round 2, just a few tenths
of a second off TQ. Ryan Eckert was 3rd, I was 4th, and JR Mitch was
5th. The top 5 qualifiers were all with in 2.5 seconds of each other.
The A-main would be close with no one having a clear advantage.

2008 R/C Pro Series East - 2nd Round

 |
5/19/2008
-
CEN Racing sweeps round 2 of the RC Pro East Series by TQ'ing & winning 1/8
Expert Buggy and Expert Arena Truck.
Expert Arena Truck
The 45 minute A-main was a race of endurance. Tire wear was not a major factor
as the track was very dusty. OCM's Alan Burton took the early lead after the 1st
lap tangle ups. I dropped down to about 7th and was working my up through the
field. I eventually caught and passed Ogden for 2nd and started to reel in
Burton. Trucks soon started dropping out with various problems giving me a huge
lead over 2nd place Seth Wrobel. As I went in to cruise control for the
remainder of the main event, Pete Worth moved into 3rd 1 lap back and that was
how we finished.
1.8 Expert Buggy
The 45 minute A-main event was sure to be a good battle between Lopez and
myself. But by the end of lap 1, Lopez was back in front with me on his bumper.
We quickly streatched out a big lead over 3rd place. We both pitted at the 8
minute mark, and continued our battle out of pit lane. At the 14 minute mark, we
were still bumper to bumper with no contact at all as we started lapping the
field. Just before the 2nd round of pit stops, Lopez stopped and was out due to
a servo failure. That gave me a huge lead over 2nd place as I slowed the pace
down and again went into cruise control for the next 30 minutes to take an easy
win. |

TQ in a row
and wins for the 5th time in the last 6 rounds of the Florida State Series

3/17/2007
In 1/8th Expert Buggy it was all Kyosho's Ryan Eckert. Ryan
Eckert TQ'd by 8
seconds over Xray's Leon McIntosh and my Cen Matrix Pro, just .1 seconds
behind in 3rd. In the A-main event, Eckert took the hole shot followed
closely by myself. TTR's JR Mitch moved into 3rd and eventually caught
me
and Eckert at the 6 minute mark. As I was heading in for my 1st pit
stop, I
ran out of fuel 1 foot from the line. That put me 2 laps down and left
Eckert and Mitch to battle for 1st. Eckert went on to win by a good 10
seconds, with Kelly Bear taking 3rd.
In 1/8 Truck, Kyosho's Tony Pattishall took the early TQ. But in round
2, I
had a perfect run and took over TQ by 11 seconds. My Matrix TR Arena was
only 3 seconds slower then the Expert Buggy TQ time, even though the
track
was very tight for the big trucks. In the A-main event, CEN's Kyle Sokol
took the lead over from Pattishall early on. I had to work my way up
through
the field as I missed the start. I caught Sokol and followed him as we
stretched out our lead over the rest of the pack. Just before the 1st
pit
stops, Sokol flamed out and dropped back. That gave me a huge lead and I
went on to lap the whole field and win by 3 laps over 2nd place Steve
Szykulski and Glenn Napurski in 3rd to give me a perfect points score of
303
points thus far in the series.

CEN Racing's all new Matrix
Arena TR is sweeping Australia!

|
3/12/2007
CEN Racing's all new Matrix Arena TR is
sweeping Australia! Our Aussie representative Ari Bakla show
complete domination with his Matrix Arena TR at the RDRC-AWJ Nitro
Challenge last weekend by taking the Championship and 1st place
prize money. On Saturday, Bakla began his domination by
setting the all time track lap record with his Matrix Arena TR.
This lap record was help prior with a 1/8th buggy, and Bakla
shattered the lap record with his CEN Truggy. To top it off, Bakla
then beat his own lap record on Sunday re-breaking the all time lap
record at one single event! In the main event Bakla continued his
conquest by winning the race by over 10 laps!
This is generally unheard of! Ari Bakla's performance authenticates
and confirms CEN Racing's Matrix Arena TR Truggies ability to
perform and compete among the best.
It was almost a foregone conclusion given the blinding pace all
weekend that Ari Bakla and his Rocket propelled CEN would surely
take the 1/8 Truggy title and money out unless an earthquake or
missile were to take him out.
