Jim Kvidera's RC Addiction line of accessories is race-tested on the tracks of Florida, and proven here at the Dirt NItro Challenge, as Jim used his own fuel on the way to a second place finish in 40+ Buggy to beat teammate Paul Ciccarello, who rounded out the podium. Ciccarello couldn't have been too disappointed - he won 40+ Truck on Saturday night!

Kvidera, Ciccarello, and seven other drivers used Nitro Pro fuel with remarkable success this weekend, with drivers in the Expert Truck and Buggy main events as well. Kvidera has been working on building up the Nitro Pro fuel lineup, including specific blends for various types of racing; racer, basher, and break-in fuels. The brand has been a staple of the East Coast scene and race results such as what the team achieved here in Arizona should help spread the word out west.

The Hot Headz engine heaters are 40 watts, which is as much as twice as high as those offered by some competitors, to heat up the engines to a warmer temperature before starting. Twelve-volt versions are also available. The covers can be purchased in five different colors, and the entire unit is made in the US.
