RECON G6 and Terra-X race in Ocala, April 27-28
It's a scale crawling event with a SC/go fast race on sunday. Here are all the details....
The G-Train is gearing up for a good old fashion treasure hunt in Ocala, Florida. Are you ready for adventure? Maybe a little "danger"? How bout the thrill of finding treasure? The G-Crew is and with Rivas Concepts RC Page on board to document the Silver Springs Treasure Hunt RECON G6, G6'ers are sure to end up on his film reel. Lets get started, shall we...
...Back in 1539 a Spanish explorer by the name of Hernando De Soto began his march up the Florida peninsula. He carried with him one of the largest Spanish treasures to ever leave Spain. Hernando came across several indian towns, but it wasn't until he stumbled upon the infamous pirate camp of Capt. Newred that Hernando's travels ended abruptly. Historians have gathered several pieces to the puzzle, but just how Capt. Newred was able to take the Spanish Treasure and hide it so well that no one has found it to this day, is baffling. Modern day Divers have found nothing at the bottom of Silver Springs. Treasure hunters have dug up the banks of the Silver River with no luck. Skeptics mock those that know this treasure is real in the minds of the believers despite the Moultrie Creek Curse that is said to be the reason that this treasure has not been found.
No G6'er has ever looked for this treasure and everyone knows that adventure flows through the veins of every driver who challenges their driving ability and their G-Ride / scaler's capability in a RECON G6.
I would like to welcome you to the Silver Springs Treasure Hunt RECON G6.
