This race is on and is in the works right now. It will happen. It will
be an Indoor event. The date is set; 21,22,23 of April. I will have all
the details later this week in regards to how many entriess and entry
fees. Throphys for classes, Food, and door prizes. I hope everyone can
make it. I also will need to see about the cut-off of entries.

I am proud to say that we have some sponsors of this event already and
more are getting involved, even some non RC related companies.

Thanks rocco. I think it is a good idea to do different charity events. Look at motorcycles. When they say its for a specific thing tons of people show up to ride.

For those that are not aware,

This race is a benefit race that Joe Torres has come up with, this race and all its proceeds will go to the Diabetes Assoc, to help find a cause. Bernie and the LH crew has stepped up Big Time!!! Joe, John, Rocco and I are hard at work to make this the EVENT TO BE AT!! We are hoping to have media coverage, magazine and local news. Hoping to get some big name guys out. Working on getting some nice door prizes....

The thing not to lose sight in as we work on this race and it gets closer, is that the races main goal is to raise
