Here are 2 pictures from the Check presentation.

The boy "Luke" was a lil guy we met the first time we stayed at the Ronald McDonald House. The other two children are his brother (Kyle) and sister (Alexis). Luke has a very rare form of illness, usually terminal. He is a great kid and very high spirited. They use the Ronald McDonald House 5 to 8 times a year.

This charity, as you seen Sunday, is very dear to me.

FINAL TOTAL FOR MONEY RAISED $1,817.00 FOR RMHC

THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR SUPPORTING OUR RACE WEEKEND.

I would like to thank everyone that helped, donated, and raced their asses off.

Food was AMAZING. Thank you to my family.
Door prizes were AMAZING. Thank you to everyone that contributed.
Racing was AMAZING. Thank you to everyone that raced.

First year, in my opinion was a great success. Even with the 4:30 am dourpour we received. Thank you Sam, Brayden, Tom2tone, Gary, Jim, Dustin, Tom S., and everyone else that helped prep track sunday. Amazingly, we still used 900 gallon of water.


I can't wait for next year. Next year will be a 1 day event, $25 - Unlimited classes, more door prizes than the 118 I gave away this year. I will, however, have someone help me organize it. I am absolutely exhausted.

Speaking of planning:

Coming within the next month -

E-SCALE VS. NITRO - BUGGY SHOOTOUT and

E-Scale Cash race - Prize purse donated by Mike McGhee again.

No racing at Altoona this coming weekend. (July 4th).
I am going to LCRC to enjoy a day of racing myself on July 10. Let's gather a group to go.

We will race on the July 11th at Altoona.

Anyone looking for a place to run this weekend, Hobby Headquarters is running on the 3rd and G's in Shippensburg is running on the 4th. I will be at G's on the 4th. Feel free to add your name to the Lost Creek Roster at http://www.rctech.net/forum/racing-f...tral-pa-2.html

Since G's donated some good stuff to the charity race, and I am off on Monday I am planning on making the trip down to race with those guys this Sunday.

Since they helped us I think it would be nice to get a group of guys to go down there on Sunday and support them, since Altoona is not racing this weekend. I already talked to Jim and he is going to go as long as he can take care of a few things first. Anyone else in??

I'm out for any racing this weekend. But you can sure as hell bet if I went I would race, not stand around and watch!
