Thunder in the Burgh is coming to Heinz Field and PNC Park this Friday afternoon and will run through Sunday afternoon.
Steel City Hobbies will have the R/C Drag Strip set up on Sunday, June 11th from 11am thru 4pm.
The faster cars will be paired up with the REAL FULL SCALE cars on the main strip to try their hand at beating a real car. I did it 2 years ago! Nitro Mike has the current speed record of around 70mph (that is in 132' ladies) with his electric car (which is now disinigrated by an accident in Arby's parking lot). NitroMike says he has a few things up his sleeve this year with his Nitro stuff...
FREE R/C Drag Racing for anyone who dares to show up.
You can race just about anything!! From trucks to dragsters. If it is too big, we will put you out on the big boys strip - no problem.
Everyone will have to pay a $10 admission fee, which gets you into the whole facility. You will be able to view the real drag racing as well as shopping around the booths and Coke-a-Cola Great Hall in Heinz Field! It is a great deal! The event runs all weekend and looks to be of record size!
