Cody's Story - KYOSHO RC

Cody's Story !

My emotions after crossing the finish line are still going around in my head. With the amount of talent at the IFMAR Worlds, anybody in the final is capable of winning, but I managed to pull it off this time. A lot of this has to do with desire, or hunger to win. I really wanted to win and put in the effort to do it.

To win in this race, you needed to be tough in all aspects. This means your own mind set and team work with your pit crew. Communication throughout the event and weeks and months prior to the race is critical. The Pattaya track with concrete and metal fences made it even harder to finish a 10 minute heat, let alone a one hour main. Also with off camber turns trying to drag you down to the outside.

I was able to trust the Inferno MP9 until the end even in this kind of condition. Great performance, solid construction, stability, controllable characteristic, with wide range of set up options made me survive this race flawlessly… So I guess the toughest guy was probably the Inferno MP9! I think the Inferno MP9 is the best choice to win any 1/8th scale buggy race.

I was pleased to attain my goals... 2nd qualifier and fast lap for round 1, qualified directly into the semi, solid performance in the semi, and win the final. I'm very happy with the whole week's result.

Anyways, I would like to thank Team Kyosho International, all my sponsors, my Family and my fans. Count on me to give my best effort to win in the future as well! - Cody King, 2010/2011 IFMAR 1/8 Scale Fuel Off-Road World Champion. read more...
