The best R/C races ever

Probably the best thing about R/C Racing is the tight battles on track. There aren't many things more exciting than fighting for the lead spot in a race.  It's the adrenaline rush that rewards our days, hours or weeks of preparation for a race.
With that in mind here are the best two RC battles I've seen yet.

 First up is the battle in the second half of the Pro Truggy A-main at the 2010 Dirt Nitro Challenge. It's Ty Tessman vs. Ryan Cavalieri. Ty is fighting for his first ever big win right after coming off a crushing disappointment at the buggy pre-worlds in Pattaya Thailand where he TQ'd and dominated the main, but suffered a broken radio switch half way through. The real action start about 7 or 8 minutes in when Ryan Cavalieri's seemingly insurmountable leading slowly begins to crumble as he start to make small mistakes that add up.

Second we've got what might just be the best battle ever in the history of R/C racing between two of the world's best drivers fighting for the R/C worlds greatest prize; an IFMAR world title. This race is the 3rd A-main of the 2008 electric touring car world championships in Bangkok Thailand. The clip is from the TV show RC Racing TV, which is a great show broadcast throughout Europe, and the commentator is John Hindhaugh. John does a great job of setting the race up and providing commentary, which really helps elevate the level of excitement in this video.
