A few weeks ago we had the 3rd annual Vintage Race at World of RC in NC.

It was a great event. I didn't have any entries but came out to take some pics.

Join their FB group and make some plans to visit. It's a rural area so hotels are cheap if needed.
FB and I parted ways a few decades ago. 🤣
Maybe I will try to convince Mrs. Certified to join... She LOVES getting R/C updates! 🤣

Seriously, its EXACTLY my brand of R/C heaven!!! Maybe wr can work out a road trip some day. 😎👍

There were people from as far away as PA and CT. Really great crowd. Awesome track was fun to drive but not abusive on the cars. I raced it in novice and 2wd SCT a few days later and drove it before they mellowed it out. Fun track.

It looks fun! Some of those pictures look like action shots from RCCA magazine BITD!!!😎👍
The ride from Maine might be a bit long but we'll see if we can work something out maybe. I'm still a long ways off from being ready to race.
The Mid project is just starting to find its way out from under the Xmas chaos.
I do have a bunch of vintage stuff I could try to get running with the 30 year old electronics, radio gear... 🤔 Would be a FANTASTIC reason to get my old Mid dusted off and ready to race again too.🤔
Too much to think about!!! I have a year to get ready, right? I'll need it!!! 🤣

The softer dirt track is what the old R/Cs were built to run on!!! That must really have been a blast to run with some of those other classics!
