Shimo Finishes in 4th @ IFMAR 1/8 Worlds in Miami


The only Kyosho in the final having qualified directly Takaaki Shimo was disappointed to miss out on the podium. Working to his 1-hour plan the highest placed OS Speed driver believes second was on the cards but the premature end to the race did not let his strategy play out.
