This past weekend the RC Pro Series finals took place at Thornhill Racing Circuit with over 170 entries. 11 racers were crowned series champion for the year, and some epic finals racing was seen. Check out the epic finish posted originally on facebook by Thornhill Racing Circuit!

In Pro Buggy, TQ Ethan Lefebvre would lead until the 2nd pit stop before ultimatley falling on engine troubles. Tyler Hooks would take over and build over a 20 second gap over Dillion Caldwell, Brandon Rose would fight past Caldwell after a terrible start leaving the Serpent driver at the back of the pack. Caldwell would ultimately retire and in the last 15 minutes Rose would cut Hooks' lead down and take the lead before running into carnage on the second to the last lap and giving Hooks the lead. Hooks would flame out 20 feet before the finish coasting across the line seconds before Rose came flying across the line. Robbie Darby would take 3rd with Austin Jeffries 4th and Mark Morrow 5th.

In Pro Ebuggy TQ Brandon Rose would only be passed once on his way to an A1 and A2 win for the overall. Tyler Hooks would settle for 2nd unable to match the pace of Rose. Dillon Caldwell would take a relatively lonely 3rd with Quincy Hughes 4th and Robbie Darby 5th.

Truggy would see TQ Tyler Hooks fade to 3rd in the first 5 minutes, but regain pace and take the lead after the first pit stop. He would not look back for the win. Brandon Rose and Ethan Lefebvre would fight for 2nd for almost the entirety of the race before Rose fell on trouble with 5 minutes to go. Pablo Tejada would finish 3rd with Aaron Royston 4th and Robert Chapman 5th.
