801rcc 2015 Ultra4 and Trail Event #1 "Rock Rail Express"

With the New Year comes a new adventure, with new challenges, and new memories. What will your adventure be is up to you,.... But rest assured some of the best R/C adventures can be found at the 801rcc events!! With the Start of the New Year here and the cold weather settled in, this event will not be for the timid driver. In past years events this time of year are often subject to snow and freezing temps, so If you think you're hardcore enough, and your setup is good enough to take on the arctic conditions, come on out and show us what you got. Of course there are some that are crazy and would just come for the fun and the memories.
