Ben Pugh Kyosho 10th Racer Bio.

[:en]I was recently talking with the Sam Pugh, Mum of one of our young Kyosho drivers who started RC racing 2 years ago as a complete novice, and recently and become F1 graded in the highly competitive British national series!!!! To me this a fantastic achievement for a young driver in such a short space of time, So I asked if Ben Pugh would be willing to do me a short Biography so I could share his success.

I think it shows with the support of his parents and dedication to this hobby how much you can achieve whilst at the same enjoying a great hobby together as a family.

Ben Pugh Kyosho 10^th Racer Bio.

I started racing at the age of 12 in 2014. The first car I started with was a Kyosho RB6. I slowly got into the racing scene and gaining more experience, I have raced at many venues and learnt many different surfaces and getting use to jumps. My first serious meeting was the west mid regionals which where I was trying to get an F grade. At this point I had now got a 4wd which was a zx5 .The first year of regionals I was able to pick up my F3 grade and also pick up both of the top u13 shields. Over the winter I was doing winter series outdoors and Friday nights indoors. Going into 2015 I raced at the British winter open championship, and then carried on to do my first year of nationals and my second year of regionals. In my regionals I was able to get my F2 and finishing up 57^th in the 2wd nationals and 53^rd in the 4wd nationals. Again in my regional I got top u13 shields. Coming towards the end of the season I went to the end of season finals to compete in the u13. I was able to win in the 2wd and finish 5^th with my 4wd. Now going into the 2016 series I had changed my rb6 to an rz6 and my zx5 to a zx6. Again I started the season with the British winter open championship to then do my 3^rd regional series and 2^nd national series. In my regionals I finished 8^th in the 2wd and 10^th in the 4wd and picked up the top u16 shields. With the national series I was able to finish 31^st in the 2wd and 39^th in the 4wd. With these results in the national series I had got my F1 grade and I was so happy. Coming towards the end of the 2016 series I attended the u16 championship finishing 3^rd in the 2wd and 2^nd in the 4wd. I now had only one serious event left and that was the F2s. I finished 12^th in the 2wd and 4^th in the 4wd. I’m loving my kyosho car and now using my new rb6.6 and also using my zx6. Look forward to next season where I will be competing at club, regional and national level. Over these few years I have learnt many different surfaces and getting use to jumps.

Here are my national results for 2015 and 2016.

2015 2wd, 57^th place overall

2015 4wd, 53^rd place overall

2016 2wd, 31^st place overall

2016 4wd 39^th place overall
