Ryan Maifield has successfully defended his Top25RC World #1 Ranking by another dominating performance at this past weekend's Silver State race.

Dakotah Phend was looking good to move himself up the ranks with a win until a mechanical failure took him out of the race. Mr. Consistent, Ty Tessmann, retains his # 2 ranking after finishing 2nd. World Champion David Ronnefalk finished 3rd which vaulted him to the #3 ranked driver, and Ryan Cavalieri drops 2 spots after mysteriously "missing" this years Silver State.

New to the Top 25 Rankings is Tanner Stees who has been quietly climbing the ranks and debuts at the #24 spot. Next projected qualifying event is the Neo Race.
