"A huge thanks goes out to the sponsors, racers, crew, and spectators!  What began as a small club race with barely 100 entries has evolved into an International event that attracts race fans of all ages and skill level!  We hope you have had a great time, win or lose, being part of the race.
Without everyone's support we would not be able to put the race on for the R/C indsutry."
