This past weekend The Nitro Compound in Maricopa, Arizona held the 2025 FTC. The event was a nice tune-up for the drivers heading to the Dirt Nitro Challenge in a few weeks.
This was a local race for heavy hitters like Ryan Maifield so the team headed out and had a heck of a weekend.
Ryan Maifield used Blue compound Dirt Bites in qualifying and Blue compound Reflex in the main event to take the win in Nitro Buggy.
The team topped the charts in qualifying in multiple classes including the following:
Pro Buggy: 1st Ryan Maifield, 2nd Mason Fuller
