UF1 Coming to Upper Midwest!
So you enjoy RC, and you enjoy F1...well the best F1 RC series is coming to the upper Midwest this Fall/Winter/Spring Season! First, check out UF1RC.com for more information on the series, rules, classes, and very cool features they support (Race news, permanent numbers, Drivers Card, etc). They also have a forum here on RCTech > UF1 is Back In SoCal!
The Region 4 series will include 1 race per month for points (Oct - April). I will be contacting tracks for a 1 day race venue in this region, if you have suggestions please let me know. Also, to support UF1 I will seek alignment with tracks to run it as a weekly class offering so test and tune sessions are available. Currently the UF1 F2 (Amateur) class is same/similar to the 25.5 Class many tracks run today.
UF1 embraces realistic racing, competition, and substantial track time. There is even a Constructors Cup, just like F1! Expect a team to emerge from Best Buy for sure! If you have any questions after reading up on UF1, you can reach me at [email protected]! I look forward to working with and providing a whole new experience of racing competition with all of you.
Regards,
Greg Amendola

The goal is to have enough interest to have our own "Grand Prix" each month. I could see where the venue could have other classes run to fill the seats; however, the UF1 rules for F1 would govern the qualifying and Mains just for F1...which is as simple as a setup change in the racing software.

Some exciting updates fresh off the press!
The series has a Title Sponsor:
I am working on additional Title sponsors so point anyone who is interested in my direction!
Race 2 has been locked in on Nov 15-17 at Genesis RC Raceway! https://www.genesisrcraceway.com/ The track is large, very well maintained, and has a well stocked Hobby shop! Check them out on Facebook too!
I have also selected the Series Trophy Vendor, Race Rewards> https://www.race-rewards.com/ Keeping the business in the region is important, and the products from Race Rewards are stellar. Check out their homepage an discover the serious hardware (CUPS) our champions will be receiving for their efforts.
Look here for updates, or check out UF1rc.com!

I am working on race 1. Also trying to schedule several qualifiers in September for those that want to go Pro, get their permanent numbers, drivers cards, and build the fastest car possible. UF1 is 21.5 vs UF2 25.5 and has no min weight, all you engineers and scale watchers now can go wild!
