CAM RC - May Long Weekend Trophy Race

[PoCoMo]

CAM RC will be holding their annual May long weekend trophy race on the May long weekend (May 21 - 23)

Practice and sign ups - Friday all day (Signed up racers only)
Qualifying and sign ups - Saturday
Qualifying and Mains - Sunday

There will be lots of fun racing, door prizes, fun racing, trophies, food and some fun racing.

This will also be the official opening of the new track which is looking absolutely awesome. You'd never know that the track didn't even exist 2 weeks ago. Every day it's looking better due to the phenomenal volunteer work that our members have provided.

In case you still don't know, the new track is located on Pipeline Road in Coquitlam just past the RC flying field. Call 604-945-3888 if you need more information.

Looks like everything should be in place for the big race.

The new PA is working awesome.

Our do it yourself barbecue is working well on the honor system, along with the pop, chips and chocolate bars).

Water should be in place.

The little beach down by the river (30 seconds from the track) is getting cleaned up more each week.

Oh yeah, we'll have a porta potty for the trophy race (almost forgot the most important thing)

With a little arm twisting, I'm sure we could get a few heli demos at the track for entertainment. I'm sure Marc, Joel, & Roger would be up to the task. There's not room for much more than hovering, but we could probably get in a few hovering flips, power climbs, etc.

Going to be a bunch of door prizes too.

Thanks to everyone who has helped get the track ready in record time. To look at the area you'd never know there was nothing there a month ago.

Oh Yeah, did I mention there would be some fun racing too? ;D

[glow=red,2,300]LATE BREAKING NEWS[/glow]

The CAM RC May long weekend race is being extended to be a 4 day event, still at the same low price of $30.

Friday - Practice for registered entrants
Saturday - Registration and Qualifying
Sunday - Qualifying
Monday - Last chance Qualifier and Mains

With the final qualifier and Mains on Monday, racers from the WCORCS event in Langley can still make the final day if they haven't had enough yet. Since we always use the bump up system, even a poor qualifying effort can get you to the A Main with steady performances in the Lower Mains.

Come One! Come all!
