VP/PowerMaster Scores FOUR Podiums at 2012 Silver State Nitro Challenge
4.22.12 Boulder City RC Speedway – Boulder City, NV
VP/PowerMaster drivers scored big at this year’s Silver State Nitro Challenge race in Boulder City, NV. The high altitude combined with hot temps and dry climate made for finicky needle adjustments for many drivers. VP/PowerMaster shined through virtually eliminating flameout issues due to fuel related problems providing PowerMaster users all the power and reliability they needed to compete and succeed under the blistering Nevada sun. In the 40+ Open Truck class, VP/PowerMaster team driver, Mike Battaile, not only took TQ honors for a pole position start, but went on to ultimately dominate the A-Main by lapping the entire field not once, but twice. Mike would then turn around in the 40+ Open Buggy class and charge for another podium spot landing a second place finish after the 30-minute race.
