Over the weekend Team Serpent USA driver DJ Apolaro was in action in the ROAR Region 4 Championships where the Sedan star was also at the controls of a 960 ‘08.

DJ sent us this account of his busy weekend where we think its fair to say he just started a love affair with 1:8 Gas Onroad racing -
This past weekend were the Region 4 Championships, being held at the Homestead/Miami Speedway in Miami, Florida. I decided to run both classes (Sedan and 1:8 scale). I wanted to start practicing for the 1:8 scale Nationals since I have no real experience with 1:8. I got to the track on Friday and started practicing with others that also showed up a day earlier for practice.

Richard Hicklin kept Team Serpent UK’s impressive run of national championship race victories going over the weekend when he TQ’d and won Round 3 of the BRCA run series at Cotswold.

Running his 960 ‘08 powered by a Mega MF engine, former British Champion Hicklin claimed the TQ as when he was the only driver to record a 20 lap run in the qualifying heat giving Serpent their 3rd straight pole of the season.

Starting from No.1 position on the grid Hicklin continued to set the pace recording the fastest lap of the race enroute to his first win of the season. Joining him on the podium was team-mate and Round 1 winner Neil Diver.

The win moves Hicklin to the top of the points table and Team Serpent, the defending champions, will be looking to continue their winning run at Round 4 which takes place at Mendip on June 15th.
