Well some long hours but nothing a bunch of guys couldn't handle.

Big thanks to Dan for getting the ball rolling and getting a bunch of rocks to Madness, Thanks man.

Also a big Thank you to Chris Marcy, owner of R/C Madness for providing us with the indoor space for it. Any one who has raced Dirt or Touring car and has been to R/C Madness knows how much work and personal time Chris puts into this hobby, its not just a job to him like you see in some shop owners this man is never hesitant to help any form of racer out.

And last but not least the crew from ECRCC. Curt and Carl thanks for bringing up some extra rock, Keyd and Eli for toughing it out and throwing the sweat down ..... Great job to everyone!

Feel free to stop by ECRCC's website for any info or questions you may have about rules, trucks, setups or even just to say hi.

And if your looking to see whats happening at R/C Madness swing on to Chris's cyber world at http://www.rcmadness.com/
You can also find the community of racers at http://rcmadness.freeforums.org/index.php



Well got some pictures of the area and its first preliminary setup.










And some of the hobby store ..... there isnt much you wont find there lol.



Keep an eye here for news about the first GTG/Gentlemen's Comp in December at R/C Madness.

And dont forget about the newly added class to ECRCC's 2011 schedule ........ LSO 2.2 - Limited Shafty Only Class

Hope to see some new faces this coming season and some old faces biting for that series title again.

might have to get down and scope it out!! Do you think the 1.9 scalers have any chance at it? Looks geared towards the 2.2 comp rigs.

I'm sorry I was unable to be there, as usual I had to work on sat. Even though I'll feel like a freeloader, I'll certainly try to enjoy driving on it! Thanks for everything guys!

Default Thank You Guys...

Thank you....
To all of the guys at this event. Emily and I (Bill) are now hooked for life and it was all because of you guys and your help.

This event was great... We asked a million questions and got back nothing but great answers...
I know when we left the event, all we kept telling each other was how nice you all are... I know we're newbies, but you guys made us feel like apart of the group...
You all made us feel very welcome and your a great group of guys. Keep up the great work...

You have made us RC Rock Crawlers for life...

Bill & Emily
