"This weekend saw the first round of the Arizona state champs run at the rather well known & love Nitro Pit in Wittman,AZ. In the pro classes it was the Billy Fischer show, taking a clean sweep of TQs & wins in buggy & truggy, Trevor Clement laid claim to 2nd in both as well, whilst 3rd in buggy went to Chris Wheeler and in truggy to Mr Ross Denny. We received a great (long!!) race recap from announcer extraordinaire Kenny Brosch." Read More... [Source -neobuggy.net]

In the last month I have been gathering information on what has taken place in South Africa this year. I'll condense it to say our Director dropped out and disappeared. I have not been able to contact him since March. Once I was apprised of what had happened ( or not happened) I have decided to renounce the South Africa Director position of Jerry Oliver. I am in discussion with Johan van der Linde and Hein Fromman about forming a new committee of Directors with Hein Frommen as head of that group. We would like to rebuild RC Pro South Africa and will need some additional help on the committee. I invite anyone interested in helping with this effort to please email me at southafrica@rcprosites.com .

Round one of the 2008/2009 AKA Winter Series got off to a flying start with no less than 71 drivers making the trip to DRT. This was set to be a no walk in the park race meeting for anyone as the level of driver in attendance was fantastic. To name a few we had "Mike Cradock Kyosho MP9, Brennan Ralls Xray 808, Sam Taylor Mugen MBX6, Elliot Boots Mugen MBX6, Tommy Chung Kyosho MP9, Kevin Brunsden Xray 808 and Reece Sawyer Kyosho MP9" The first round got underway and with a slightly damp surface the guys were laying down the laps and having fun round 2 saw the cars getting faster as racers altered there setups to suit the conditions but this was to be the start of a turning point in the day as the racing gods decided that we would like to race in the rain again "Just For a Change" and it started with gentle rain but very quickly turning to what seemed to be a mini tropical downpour for round 3.
