Default 1987 Reedy Off-Road Race of Champions

I am trying to compile a list of previous Invitational Class winners and I am unable to confirm the very first winner in 1987. Does anyone have anything that shows who that first winner was?

FYI, here is the list of previous winners:

• 1987 = ? (Hot Trax)
• 1988 = Kris Moore (Hot Trax)
• 1989 = Cliff Lett (Radio Controlled Hobbies)
• 1990 = Cliff Lett (Radio Controlled Hobbies)
• 1991 = Masami Hirosaka (Radio Controlled Hobbies)
• 1992 = Rick Hohwart (Radio Controlled Hobbies)
• 1993 = Masami Hirosaka (Hobby Haven)
• 1994 = Mark Francis (So Cal Raceway)
• 1995 = Jeremy Kortz (RC Offroad Raceway)
• 1996 = Greg Hodapp (M&M Hobbies)
• 1997 = Mark Pavidis (M&M Hobbies)
• 1998 = Brian Kinwald (M&M Hobbies)
• 1999 = Mark Pavidis (M&M Hobbies)
• 2000 = Brian Kinwald (M&M Hobbies)
• 2001 = Billy Easton (Hot Rod Hobbies)
• 2009 = Ryan Cavalieri (Yatabe Arena)

Thanks!

Jack Johnson and Cliff Lett are the front runners and what is listed on AE's site but Cliff has no recollection of winning. I am guessing that Cliff was the 2wd points leader and Jack Johnson won the Open class.

1987 was a long time ago lol, no wonder Cliff doesn't remember. I was in 7th grade and Joel Johnson was my idol. I think R/C is the only reason I remember that year.

Default Chris Allec was the First Reedy Cup Offroad Winner

It was me Chris Allec, have the Reedy Cup in my hobby shop to prove it.

I won the Invitational Overall, 2wh & 4wd were combined for the overall winner.

It is also on the Born To Race DVD made by Gene Husting, one of the original founder of Associated.

Cliff Lett lost by one or two points.

Weird, the ad list Jammin’ Jay as a Reedy winner, but I don’t see him in Rick’s list??? Maybe a 2wd/4wd class thing?

Oh yeah, how about proving it by posting some pictures of the cars you used?
(I know it might be a long shot, whether you still have them. But hey I'm a Vintage fan, you never know, thought I'd ask.)
