Agama Racing puts 5 cars in the top 9 at the JC Clash Warm-up race!

Last Sunday was the warm-up race on the new layout for the upcoming JConcepts Clash. Most of Florida's best were there for some extra practice to be ready for the big event December 9-12th at Hurricane Raceway in Lutz. Agama USA was there as well as Serpent, Associated, Kyosho, and Xray. When the main events were over, there was one car that was the most popular - the Agama A8.

There was an incredible 5 Agama A8's in the top 9. Agama USA's Gene Hickerson battled for the lead for the first 22 minutes, never being more then 1 second out of 1st place before dropping back to third in the closing minutes of the main. Finishing 5th was non other then Hurricane President himself, Joey "Batman" Perez. Agama USA driver, Ryan Johnson, held on to 4rd place the entire race until an engine flame out near the end, dropping him back to 7th place. Privateer driver, Billy England, raced his new Agama A8 buggy for the first time and bumped up from the B-main to finish 8th place. Rounding out the top 9 was Agama USA driver, Manny Sanchez. Congratulations to all the Agama A8 drivers and good luck next week at the Clash! Levi Jackson will be attending the event next week for Agama USA as well, increasing Agama USA's chance at a strong showing.
