801rcc 2015 Ultra4 and Trail Event #11 "Silver State 600"
A battle is fought every month in Utah, sometimes near it's boarders, sometimes in it's mountains, other times in it's deserts. This Battle is not a fight against an enemy, but instead a fight against Mother Natures terrain. Her weapons take form in dirt, rock, weather, and time. Our weapons come in the form of R/C vehicles. Each vehicle an extension of it's driver. Mother Nature will try to slow you and even stop you if she can. It is up you to choose your weapon and plan of attack. But your biggest choice is..... will you make it to the finish line??

Wendover has turned out to be a great place to play with R/C's and Ultra4 racing should be a premium. Many of the members come out and spend the weekend with their wives and not only enjoy some great crawling but also some good food, fun gaming, and maybe even some drinks. With amenities only a mile away makes this spot a premium. Come on out and enjoy a day of racing, then run just down the road and enjoy the evening of fun at the casinos.
