Bryce Menzies drives the Team Associated/RC10.COM truck under the lights in Lake Elsinore for rounds 7 & 8 of the Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Series!
Rounds 7 & 8 of the Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Series (LOORRS) took place again at the Lake Elsinore Motorsports Complex in Southern California. Rounds 5 & 6 saw Lake Elsinore transformed into a world class short course racing venue, and for rounds 7 & 8 it got even better as they ran the races at night under the lights. So not only did you get the added benefit of cooler temperatures under the stars, you also got to see all the action at night which always looks awesome.
This was a particularly exciting weekend for the AE crew, as Bryce Menzies debuted Team Associated/RC10.COM Unlimited-4 truck. Pitting in the Coyne Motor Sports camp, Travis brought Bryce into drive the truck that was modeled after the Team Associated/RC10.COM SC8 truck. Bryce has been charging very hard in his Super Clean Unlimited-2 and is already showing a lot of strong promise in the U-4 after taking 4th place the first time out in the truck.
Team Associated was there with their trailer and big booth area filled with a wide array of products and demo track. We had a few new faces this time around in the celebrity races. Mike Johnson who drives the KMC Wheels #31 U-2 filled in for Alan Pflueger, driving his K&N Filters U-4 and his SC10. We also had Robbie Woods driver of the Lucas Oil #99 U-2 truck, showing us the fast way around the track with his SC10. These guys were mixing it up with the AE celebrity race regulars Travis Coyne, Rob 'Fig' Naughton and now Bryce Menzies. The dicing got pretty heavy all these guys on the track. You can really see these guys improving their R/C racing skills now that they have been getting some wheel time in. Proof positive that practice works!
