Alabama Manufacture Shootout is in the books! Once again, Chris Cassidy and Crew put on a fantastic event. Held at the Cullman Agricultural Center, the Alabama Manufacture Shootout is an indoor 1/8th scale off road race that brings some of the Nation’s Top Drivers together to compete for the Title of AMS Champion. This year, top pros such as Ryan Maifield, Carson Wernimont, Dakotah Phend, and Hitec’s very own Dylan Gerard were in attendance vying for the title. Dylan Gerard had an awesome showing this year at the AMS 6.0, he would go on to finish in the Top 10 in each of the Pro classes that he entered. He finished 10th in Pro Nitro Buggy, 7th in Pro Nitro Truggy, and 8th in Pro eBuggy. Dylan uses the HSB-9370TH servo in all of his vehicles, and pilots them with the Lynx 4s transmitter and Axion 2 receivers. Awesome job Dylan!
