Product development is a continuous process at Weddle Industries. Our design team is constantly searching for ways to make things stronger, function better or easier to install.
2017 was a banner year for Weddle-equipped Class 10 racers. Cars featuring Mendeola S-series sequential and Mendeola LQ transaxles found their way to the top of the Class 10 podium at nearly every BITD and SCORE race last year.
Broc Heger had a hot start in BITD in Mendeola LQ-equipped car 1074. Heger took Class 10 firsts at the Parker 425 and the Mint 400. At Vegas to Reno, Jared Teague snagged the Class 10 in Mendeola S5-equipped car 1047. The entire Mendeola S-series line has been recently revamped by Weddle Industries.

Weddle-equipped cars also dominated the SCORE Class 10. LOORS short course fixture Broc Dickerson made a huge splash in his first desert races. Dickerson won his SCORE debut at the San Felipe 250 in Mendeola LQ-equipped car 1023. Dickerson followed it up with an enviable win at the Baja 500 after upgrading to a Mendeola S5. 1068 Cody Reid was never far behind. Reid earned a second at the Baja 500 in Mendeola S5-equipped car 1068 and pulled off the race of a lifetime at the Baja 1000. Reid and his team outraced all Class 1 Unlimited cars and a majority of the Trophy Truck pack to take the Class 10 win and finish 10th overall in La Paz.
Needless to say, it was an outstanding year for Weddle-equipped 10-cars. The results below tell the story better than words. We are looking forward to Mendeola and Albins-equipped cars crushing Class 10 in 2018!
