801rcc 2014 Ultra4 R/C, Race #4 "Radiation Rally"

In the remote area southwest of Salt Lake City, Utah, is a place where the desert reverberates with the howl of 3000+ KV, brushless motors. The place is White Rock! 40 million year old granite rock rising into one of 801rcc's most challenging race courses. Here, many of the best R/C drivers in the state go head-to-head. But it takes more than sheer horsepower to win at White Rock. Its steep climbs and shifting driving surfaces demand superb throttle control, a mastery of crawling physics and a whole lot of nerve. Most of all it's about gathering friends, grabbing a vehicle and having FUN!!
