Default UPDATES

UPDATE......

Hey USVTA racers, Ive got a couple of updates to pass along

For guys running TC in this event, we are going with Solaris Med Tires/rims
for the spec tire. Since Jacos are so hard to get....we have them at the track for $30 a set(4).

For VTA, we are teching tire tread...tread most be visible across the whole tire...my suggestion would be mount a new set now and run them two or 3 times and then save them for this event.

We are also giving away a Novak 25.5 Ballastic motor(NEW) and a Novak GTB2 Racing ESC low profile(NEW), as well as many many other gifts..

and last,....Dominos Pizza will be the food vendor sponsor...we are working out the details now....discounted or free pizza to all paid racers....

thanks to everybody that is supporting the event and get those entries mailed in...the list is growing

2011 USVTA SOUTHERN NATIONALS IN MUSIC CITY

THUNDER RC has worked hard on promoting one of the biggest events you will see this year the 2011 USVTA Southern Nationals in Music City USA is scheduled for
Sept 23-25th, 2011. There is no better way to celebrate the end of a great summer of racing than a overnight road trip with your rc buddies. One of my favorite RC buds, Bryan Menard, is looking into hotels and other trip details. You can PM him (CORRRCR) for info on that. You can get more on RC Tech by clicking here
