Did you know that 4-way is addictive and a never ending road? posted: May 29th, 2015 The aftermath of the World Challenge 2015 is still far from over. There is a lot of footage and content that a field of nearly 100 teams generates and that cannot be processed and published timely.
The competition videos of NMP-PCH Hayabusa were uploaded early, on April 7th, together with the very entertaining video of the Hayabusa Hostage Crisis. The Sun Path Products NSL News now follows up with the video of a live interview of the complete Hayabusa lineup at the end of the first meet day.

Did you know that Gary Smith and Joey Jones discussed Hayabusa, Majik and the UK 2015 situation? posted: May 26th, 2015 The first 2015 outdoor scores from the United Kingdom brought back memories and videos of the World Challenge 2015. Gary Smith and Joey Jones had discussed the situation after the last training day before the start of the competition.
They did not only talk about the teams they were coaching or competing with. The 2015 season in the United Kingdom was also a topic, especially the AAA Class competition, which will produce the next UK national team at this year's national championships.
Voodoo, Vision 99, Satori and 4mula were the names of the AAA Class teams who will somehow be involved in... (more)
