2021 Mini Nationals Winning Rides

The Mini Nationals are back! Years ago, mini racing was massive and RC Madness in Enfield CT was one of the reasons for the big wave in mini racing. They hosed the Mini Nationals where drivers from all over converged to race all types of mini RC cars. Over time, the segment slowed, but with the release of the Losi Mini-T 2.0 and Mini-B, there has been a resurgence in mini racing. Because of this, RC Madness once again stepped up to hold the Mini Nationals. It was scheduled for 2020, but with the pandemic was moved to 2021. The race was held on February 27 and had a great showing. There was lots of exciting racing throughout the day and we grabbed some of the winning cars to show you what they ran.
