Short Course Winners

Dez (Coca Cola) Chand piloted the sole Hyper 10SC in captivity to a fine 3rd on the grid and a win in the first A Final leg of the Short Course Shootout, but a 4th in leg two after a rather disastrous start meant 3rd overall and top 4WD title was assured. Powered by a sensible 10.5 Novak Ballistic motor in his usual fashion rock steady Dez went for reliability and consistency, with just enough power to clear all three sets of doubles and the table top lap after lap, without ballooning his tyres too much and losing grip, which proved far more drivable than 'boom and bust' of his power hungry 4WD competitors and the Hyper 10SC has proven ultra reliable in it's 7 meetings to date without a single failure or repair. Picture by Callum Chand Dez freely admits to having spent zero time on maintenance and even the kit motor pinion is still used, so the Hyper 10SC is completely standard apart from the addition of the Proline Bowtie tyres used to gain a little extra grip in the loose and dusty conditions of the summer dirt track at Coventry Baginton Club. Picture by Callum Chand Dez says "Many thanks to Mark of CMCC for the Coca Cola paint Job, and to everyone for leaving it attached to the lexan bodywork for the entire throughout 4 rounds of qualifying and two finals. Thanks also to Coventry crew for running a very smooth meeting with a nice relaxed start and leisurely schedule." Also, in the 2WD class, CML Driver Tony Truman came up trumps with his Associated SC10 Short Course Truck. Click here to download a copy of Tony's winning SC10 setup sheet.
