BMiller Racing and Eddie Bernal double victory!

 

With victories in Pro Buggy and 2wd short course, Eddie Bernal led a parade of seven
BMiller Racing podium finishes in the three pro classes of LSR Speedway’s Round 2
action of the Thursday Night Nats Off-Road Series. Each of the seven BMiller Racing
Top 3 finishes were powered by ProTek R/C “Supreme Power” Li-Poly batteries from
A Main Hobbies.

The feature race of the night came in Pro Buggy where the BMiller Racing crew swept
the podium. Bernal TQ’d in his Associated B4.1 and led all but one lap in the six-
minute A main to win by six seconds over his 13-year-old son, Nathan Bernal, who
held off hard-charging teammate Justin Moon for second. All three BMiller drivers
were on Panther tires in clay compound with the Bernal duo using Rattlers and Moon
sporting Switch 2.0’s.

Bernal was even more convincing in 2wd short course, posting the only 20-lap tally
in the six-minute A main with his Associated SC10. BMiller Racing teammate Todd
Pearson finished second as he continues to improve and has seemingly started to
figure out the dynamics of running on dirt after racing most of his previous career on
the pavement.

In Pro 4 short course action, Lou Figueria continued his hot streak, winning for the
11th time since New Year’s Eve. Figueria started in the No. 2 spot with his Losi SCTE
behind teammate Patrick Zhao’s TQ showing. After a little trouble in lap two dropped
him to sixth, Figueria started to find his grove and work his way back up, eventually
passing another teammate, Josh O’Connell for the lead on lap 11. Figueria went on to
register 21 laps and win by five seconds over Trevor Lind, while BMiller’s Terry
Wickum stayed steady throughout to grab the third spot. O’Connell and Zhao
finished fourth and fifth, respectively.

The Thursday Night Nats series, sponsored by Tekin and BMiller Racing, features five
rounds of racing with one drop, and concludes on Thursday, March 15. LSR
