Welcome to the 51st running of the Midwest Series.

Anything new in the world since we last met?

Obviously, things are a little different this season. The May event has been cancelled, and the June event has been moved to Toledo. The lack of information is due to the uncertainty of what kind of racing would be permitted.

As of now, the schedule is as follows:

June 13-14: Toledo
July 11-12: Toledo
August 15-16: Cincinnati
September 26-27: Cincinnati

Series will be a best 3 out of 4.

Series rules are the same as last year. ROAR memberships are still required. You know the drill.

Ken Miller is still the series director. I'm merely maintaining the RCTech presence for those who still frequent this site. Official updates are posted on the Midwest Series Facebook page.

Hope to see everyone this weekend!

Thanks Again Mike! Looking forward to the GLC and the last MWS Cincy Race.

TeamCarnage

Where is the time going?? It's almost Labor day weekend! The GLC Race flew by. At one point, I couldn't wait for it to be over. Bumping up and competing with some great racers made it all worth while. Now, I look forward to the last MWS Race in Cincy It's the weekend of the 26th. Then a couple of weeks after that, The Fuel Nats in Texas! In the meantime, the last 2 club races in Toledo are calling 9/13 and 20. GoodRacing to all!

I know that not many racers competing in the MWS are regular RC Tech users. But if your reading this page, think about who is going to step in for our current Director, Ken Miller. He has served his term and will not be doing Director duties next season. It's basically a thankless job that is done for the love of the sport/hobby. I hope to see ya at a track soon!

Mark Unger

I read this tread all the time.I'm not a face book fan at all. Hope to see everyone at the last MWS race in Cinci.
