Cody King TQs & wins at Mugen Grand Prix Rd1!
This weekend marked the first round of the Mugen Grand Prix in Chula Vista,California. There were plenty of local fast guys in attendance includingCody Smith who won the Hi-Tech race on this layout, and track manager DonVinkemulder. With only 20 minutes of practice Cody went to work right awaywith a TQ run in round 1 of qualifying, which would stand giving Cody thepole position.
On the first lap of the 30 minute final, Cody bobbled over the “wooden washboard” and surrendered the lead to 2nd qualifier Cody Smith. The two Codyswould freight train around the track nose to tail for the first 6 minutes,separating themselves from the rest of the field. It was obvious Kingwanted the lead, but he was patient and not making any aggressive moves.King with his R5T Team Edition would finally pass Smith in the pits andmaintain that advantage for the rest of the race, as the two battledthrough traffic for 20 more minutes. King would hold on for 1st, with Smith2nd and Vinkemulder 3rd.
