Did you know that four Dutch teams combined for the first two places in the A Class? posted: Dec 9th, 2010 Last not least, the A Class competition at the ISR Grand Prix 2010 had a dominating team, just as much as the AAA Class teams had to watch NMP-PCH Hayabusa do their professional business and as Creeps walked away with the 1st place in the AA Class.
It was also no surprise that the Dutch team Murphy Mania would take the 1st place in this category. Murphy Mania was the strongest A Class team throughout the 2010 outdoor season in the Netherlands and peaked at the ESL Championship 2010.
It was not the complete Murphy Mania lineup that competed at the indoor competition in Roosendaal. However,... (more)
