Celebrating its 25th anniversary, the CRCRC Electric Midwest Championship was held for the second year at the Ohio RC Factory in Jeffersonville, Ohio. A revised schedule for this year called for two qualifiers each on Friday and Saturday with main events scheduled for Sunday.

Factor driver Ryan Maifield, in his debut with Reedy Sonic motors, was impressive from the first time he hit the track. Racing in three classes, Maifield would start from the pole position in both the 4wd Modified and Short Course Modified (2wd) classes. He just missed the top spot in 2wd Modified and would line up second on the grid.

Thanks to the CRCRC crew for yet another fine event and congratulations to all the participants. See you next year!
