This past weekend was the BRCA National series opener. Team Durango's Elliot Boots TQ'ed the 1/8 buggy class, but suffered some bad luck in the main. Despite the bad luck for Boots, successful testing was done using some new option parts that will be available soon for the DNX408. Team drivers Boots and Chris Doughty were running the new option parts, and reported back that the car and new parts were exceptional!

"Elliott and the rest of the Team Durango team drivers were testing various new parts on their DNX408's. 5mm thick Carbon fibre front and rear shock towers shave off weight and have extra shock mounting positions to lay down the dampers on high-traction surfaces. The rear tower also has two lower mounting holes for the camber link. A carbon centre diff top brace and radio tray (not pictured) were also being tested on the team drivers cars." - Team Durango

Durango is definitely looking to take the DNX408 (an already winning car) to the next level. Will we see Team Durango's Ryan Lutz, Taylor James, or Billy Fischer take their DNX408 to the next level as the Silver State Championship draws near? Share your thoughts and comments below!
