no, I want to race the stock nationals, but the JBRL races are coming up almost back to back to back with it, 3 out of 4 weeks in a row @ large racing events :( Last 2 JBRL races were over 350 entries each. For a single day race, those are LOOOONNNNGGG days.

I can skip that race and hit RCX instead. I still have the ROAR SuperNationals this year just 25 minutes away, that is a nice 9 day long event :( in August...

RCX Expo Long Beach April 28-29th 2012 Golden Years RC exhib

Post by Romulus-10 »

Hi, I just wanted to say Hello to everyone. I have not been on here in some time, because of this project. I have been traveling the U.S. interviewing and Archiving the History of the Radio Controlled Car in America. Our plans are to have a free standing building for the Museum and a proper 1/8 road track, and hope to stir some interest for this project at RCX.

This has turned into a full time job, and has been amazing. I wanted to invite you all to come and visit me at the RCX show. I will be setting up some of the Museum collection , Mostly 1/8 Road Cars for the early days up until the 4WD era. I will have cars their from one of the founding fathers of R/C cars George Siposs. Also many Team cars, prototypes and lots of cool stuff.

Please stop by and say hello if you are attending. We love to talk about this wonderful hobby.

Sincerely,
Romulus Von Stezelberger

looks like you did a bang up job so far rom. the list of people that are going to be there is enough in itself. the exhibit is the cherry on top.

once the expo ends, are you going to setup an exhibit in a decaded place? for everyone to see.

Yes we are not sure of the date yet, it has been a lot of work doing all this by myself. Hope to see you at the show.

I just got back. I forgot my camera so i didn't take any pics. I checked out the museum...pretty cool. Loved the RC10s. They also have a 1:1 Tamiya Bruiser. It was pretty sweet.

I waited around. As far as I know, she didn't show or was running really late.
