Speedzone Race Report:
Dave Johnson and Speedzone Win 2011 Indoor Champs Over the years, the Cleveland US Indoor Champs has become one of the most prestigious on-road races. This year was no different. Dave Johnson and Speedzone came into the event hot off wins at the IIC Warm-UP, USVTA Nationals and Halloween Classic. The competition would be fierce and Dave would need every bit of power from his Speedzone Lipo batteries to make a run at A-Main podium finishes. Both were up to the challenge. Johnson would set the early pace in 17.5 Touring, resetting TQ every round. 1/12 scale 17.5 was a bit more challenging as Dave needed 4 rounds to dial in his car. In round 6, Dave's Speedzone powered 12th scale would set fast laps and get out to a blistering TQ pace. A few bobbles would cost him the TQ spot by a mere 7/100ths of a second. In the Touring A-Main, Dave would lead wire to wire to take the A-Main victory by half a lap. In the 1/12 A-Main, Dave would start second on the grid and took over the top spot by lap 6, never to look back. He went on to win the A-Main by a comfortable margin. A great double win for Dave Johnson and Speedzone batteries!
