They're definitely crazy!
I would love to read the prompts lol

I too would enjoy a trip to RC in a different region.

I went to BC a few years ago (2024) and it was b e a utifil! We landed in Vancouver, stayed along the water and then took a ferry to Victoria where we stayed a few days. Did some whale watching and just had an amazing time in general. The water taxis were so..umm..cute? Fun..let's go with fun.

It rained almost the entire trip but that felt very on brand for what I was picturing.

I remember back in the day there would be an RC TV show on cable television. They would feature different LHS's across the country and their local scene; every race or event they showed in BC was muddy and in the rain.



Thanks man. I am hoping if I flood the field the math should work out to take SOMETHING home LOL

BC is definitely beautiful, but out on the coast where you were they definitely see a TON of rain, I'm more in the kooteney region so we get a better mix of weather

Oh man i remember watching rc tv! Do you remember the video they did at crawler teds garage? Ahh those were the good old days

RC TV that was the name. How could I have forgotten that LOL

I used to have a bunch of them on my PVR which was a Sony DVD-R unit, but the discs have rot now.

Crawler Ted! Man!

They used to feature a guys crazy back yard here too but I can't remember his name. His course was so sick. When I got in the scene I actually helped haul a ton of stone back from the quarry in my 08 ram. I think RC TV was long done by that point.

From that time period I remember it being a big deal when you could get 7 to 10 trucks/guys at a crawling event (here anyway) crawling hadnt taken off.

Jeeze now you almost have to cap the amount of entrants

BC tangent - I remember back in the day there would be an RC TV show on cable television. They would feature different LHS's across the country and their local scene; every race or event they showed the BC scene, it was muddy and in the rain. To be totally fair we featured a lot of winter segments LOL

Don't forget the free food!

I think it would be fun to see these comps. I'm not sure I could do all day tho.

Good luck!!!

Oh wow, what a day!

I am so sunburnt! I brought sunscreen but didn't deploy it. Ah well.

Unfortunately I got there late so I missed a bit of the show and shine but I did a quick run around to grab a few pictures.

The Optic made a friend

Run/day video

The turn out was awesome! I BBQ'd 48 hot dogs 32 hamburgers!

For my buddies first event ever it went super well. He's a little irritated at one of the other title sponsor because they did close to nothing. He said Prairie RC should have been listed instead

I supplied a BBQ and stand, three mini propane bottles, the cooking tools, a folding table (thank goodness I packed it) and I cooked for three hours. Literally and literally.

It was a great time, glad to see everyone and having people thank me for my contribution was enough for me.

Plus I got to check the spot out and get some great shots of the Optic.

Smiles for miles and nothing broke; the perfect day!
