Vintage Racing

Post by RoadRunner65 »

I'm not exactly sure where to post this so I'll just post it here. This video was taking at the first ever race at Freedom Park in Camarillo Ca in 1986. The track is still open and operational to this day. It looks way different now tho. That day kicked off my love for rc racing. Our father bought us our rc cars a little bit after that. My brother got an rc10 and I got a Hornet. A couple of years later, I received my rc10 that I still have. Anyway, sorry to bore you with the back story. My brother took the video. Anyway, here is the video. Hope you guys enjoy this little bit of vintage Rc10 footage.

Looks like it was a fun race! I would've trimmed almost a minute and a half off the front end of the video though, staring at the starting line for 1:38 was too exciting! ;)
