I realize they were trying to promote their class, but I have concerns about class & will never promote it. The vehicles looked too dangerous and not only have the ability hurt an adult spectator but could seriously injury a young child. I had several children with me and did not feel comfortable having them close to 1/5th scale event. There are not enough barriers around that track & the vehicles are simply too large and over powered. You did not gain a fan last weekend I personally feel that part of the event was a waste of time. I realize they were trying to promote their class but I personally think it was a failure & it may have sealed the fate of this class.
