Lee Martin took an impressive victory with the new Tamiya 2WD electric buggy - the TRF 201X - at the first BRCA off road national of 2010 at Talywain, Wales. 17th April 2010.

Ellis Stafford took three rounds of qualifying to take overall TQ with the XFactory X6 as he looked to start another domination of the UK 2WD series - being the 2-time defending national champ.

The first leg of the A saw Ellis take an easy victory without much trouble. Lee Martin took leg two and it was all down to leg three as Ellis and Lee battled it out in a very exciting final race. A last minute pass from Lee saw him take the win and with it his first National 2WD win, and first for the new not-yet-released TRF 2WD buggy. Ellis Stafford finished 2nd overall and Grant Williams took third with the new Schumacher 2WD buggy, the Cougar SV, which was also at its first UK national event.
