Team Associated and Gillespie Jr. Take 3 Titles – 25th Annual April Fools Classic

For the 25th year in a row, the April Fools Classic has been a staple in the electric off-road racing community. Boasting “the best dirt on earth,” the Intermountain R/C Raceway located just outside of Salt Lake City, UT brought together over 200 entries vying for a title across a wide spectrum of classes.

In the top classes of 2WD and 4WD Modified it was Team Associated/Reedy/LRP’s Rob Gillespie Jr. that brought home the TQ and victory with his B4.2 Factory Team and B44.2 Factory Team, both were Reedy/LRP-equipped vehicles. Joining him in the winner’s circle was Scott Brown and his SC10 4×4 Factory Team, again equipped with Reedy/LRP electronics.

With a long history, great facility and enthusiastic leadership, the April Fools Classic is sure to remain one of the sport’s great events. It’s highly recommended that you attend the 2014 event if possible.
