AKA Dominates 2012 Off-Road European Championshps – Bloomfield TQ’s and Wins!

Racing News — 15 August 2012

AKA had an unmatched showing at the 2012 European 1/8 Off-Road Championship with 7 of the top 10 drivers after qualifying. It was Darren Bloomfield sitting on top of the leaderboard, followed by the young swede, David Ronnefalk. When it came time for the mains 9 of 12 of the finalists were equipped with AKA tires. The extremely high speed track was no match for the super-soft Enduro which provided consistency, drivability, and very little wear. The championship was a first for TLR, Great Britain, and AKA. Congratulation to all of the AKA team for the spectacular showing at the Euros.

Like Greg, my first hobby grade vehicle was a Tamiya Falcon; I began racing an RC10 shortly thereafter and have been hooked ever since. My garage of vehicles includes everything from a Losi 5ive-T and HPI Super 5SC Flux, to a Losi Micro T and almost everything in between including boats. I also help out at R/C Madness (my home away from home) in Enfield, CT, in my spare time. While I don’t race all that often anymore my Nephew, Doc, is starting to race my fleet of vehicles.
