Cragg took himself out, because Riv took control of the inside line, and Cragg didn't surrender. But he did cause Cav's boot. Stuff happens. Even with a penalty, Riv would still win the championship.
+Nathaniel W That shunt on Cav was questionable I agree. The incident with Cragg early on was not Rivkin's fault as Cragg was way off the racing line. But really if you watch the other races, Rivkin was faster just about everywhere on the track. Even without that shunt I don't think Ryan Cav or Cragg had much of a chance to take the title. Rivkin was clearly the fastest and most consistent in the mains this day. He cleanly won A2 and A3, which makes this A1 a non-factor anyway.
+osheathedj couldn't agree with you more, well said, but it just doesn't seem right to me. Seems to me that if you do you should be docked the equivalent time the person is behind you over the line in the current lap. I mean what's to discourage people from doing this on purpose given by design the person behind will most likely come off the winner as they will just go under the car in front. It also sets a bad example for club racers young and old! Anyway apart from that it was a great race.
I watched the incident a few times and I am starting to think that Rivkin was simply faster in that specific corner. If the incident would have happened in the beginning of the corner I might suspect it was dirty, but the nudge happened at the corner exit. Rivkin had a quicker line and didn't expect to come up on Cav like that. With action that fast, incidents like this happen. Rivkin even took a brief stop and go which is a sign of respect for racing incidents. And I agree it was a great race.
how can anyone concentrate on a race with that callers voice screaming out !!! Turn the volume down mate, must be very distracting for the drivers.
nice carpet racing with jumps

I do not understand how you can legally shunt someone out of the way and go on to become the world champion... Seriously!

+Nathaniel W Are you dense? Rivkin won two of the mains.
Are the 2wd buggy use gyro?
No
what power systems are they using
what about 550
No, only 540. And they must comply with ifmar regulations as siralanlordsugar said. This here is mod buggy so you typically see 3.5 turn motors.
no. not 3.5 turn motors. the highest most of the buggys guys go is a 5.5 turn

Rivkin took out Cragg and Cavalari
I have no issues with the cragg incident, imho Rivkin had the racing line.
It's a goofy layout.
