JConcepts takes another ROAR National Championship. Goose Bumps tires TQ and win new ROAR Short Course class.
Beautiful Omaha, Nebraska played host for the 2009 ROAR Electric Off-Road Nationals and without disappointment the surroundings, facility and competition was second to none. With limited knowledge of the racing surface and conditions at hand factory drivers chose from a limited selection of tires and tuned their vehicles to perfection. JConcepts bodies, tires, wheels and accessories were at the top of the results throughout the weekend.
JConcepts drivers Ryan Maifield, Steven Hartson, Kody Numedahl and Scott Brown all enjoyed massive success qualifying in the A-main in the modified classes. For Maifield it was business as usual placing his JConcepts equipped B4 buggy in the TQ position while also qualifying up-front in the 2 other modified classes.
In the main events, JConcepts driver, Ryan Maifield, earned a hard fought victory in the Modified Truck class winning A-main #1 and #2 while utilizing JConcepts Double Dee’s tires and Illuzion Hi-Flow body and spoiler.
For 2009 ROAR brought the highly popular Short Course truck class to ROAR competition. In a field of heavy competition from across the United States the JConcepts Goose Bumps were the popular tire choice for SCT competition. With a clean sweep of TQ, 1st, 2nd and 3rd place the JConcepts Goose Bumps are indeed the Hot tire for short course racing.
JConcepts would like to congratulate Ryan Maifield and the rest of the JConcepts team on an impressive weekend and another ROAR National Championship for JConcepts.
