Thank you again for all your support and we will miss you all.

Danny,

Sorry to hear the news. I am sure while today is a tough day it probably also feels a little light on the shoulders. You gave everything you had to make WCRC a top notch facility. You always hate to see anyone in the industry having to close the doors.

I wanted to personally thank you for all the support over the last several years really allowing Me and my boys to get the most out of the hobby. The help and the support of you and your team has been awesome and we have been able to create some great memories.

I wish you and your family all the best and maybe I will see you on the streets cruising the M7.

Cheers.

Sad day indeed. Even though I have not been in a year due to some life changes I am truly saddened.

In my personal opinion the on road track at WCRC was the best I have ever driven on (it's where I learned) and nowhere else came close to pure driving intensity.

I have to say it. This sucks monkey balls!!! I love West Coast and It was the reason why I got back into the hobby after being gone for a long time since just before So Cal closed years ago. Danny and crew you guys have always beensuper friendly and helpful just awesome peeps. The track is awesome with the layouts always being fun and challenging at the same time. I hate to see you go West Coast as you were my stress releiver. Danny I thank you for the good times and wish you and your family the best of luck in your future endeavors.

This is really sad news. I only recently started coming here about 3 months ago, but I've been going once or twice a week, every week. I've grown to love this place. Looks like my Tuesday nights are free now. =(

Very sad news. The RC industry lost a world class facility.

Danny, I hope we continue to see you around the RC scene.

Sorry to hear this news

Great meeting you Danny and the rest of the crew. I'm sure I'll run into you guys again, I'm gonna miss the track for sure.
It has been a while since I was able to get out to your track but I'm glad I made Westcoast's last race night. That was a great layout to go out on

What a bummer, man! It was just too hard to get out there but I spent a good portion of time there, a few years back and it was always great. Very impressive facility and it's a real shame that you're having to close down. I'm sure WCRC will be greatly missed by a LOT of people.
