Not really, but Ryan is on a serious ground pounding tear with Team Durango. We are glad everybody is safe in Virginia! So fresh from Team Durango and Ryan Lutz. The 14th round of the US Pro Series took place this last weekend at the Tiltyard in Dayton, Virginia USA. 1/8th buggy was the main class with Short Course as a support class. In Short Course, Ryan Lutz took the overall TQ with a fairly healthy domination of all four rounds with his DESC410R. The final unfortunately got rained off so Ryan took the win from qualifying.

After 3 rounds of qualifying to dominate with his DNX408 in pro buggy – the 4th and final qualifier saw Ryan put on a show for the crowds with plenty of sliding and aerial ’stunts’, just because he could! In the final Ryan rebuilt his clutch but something was wrong and he couldn’t get the buggy moving – Ryan missed the warm up and had to start from the pit-lane but thankfully the kind organizers at the Tiltyard waited a few minutes until Ryan had his car ready. With no warm up Ryan was still right on it as he pulled out a lap on the rest which he managed to hold to the line for another win.
