Hey Scott! I know it's too late for this year but what about a RC challenge for next year? I don't have one but I bet some would show up!
 
Heads up for all coming to the jamboree. Kelly will be baking 75 maple bacon cup cakes to sell so come hungry for home made bacon awesomeness.
 
I may have issues with a navigator this time around. It may be last minute before I have one. If there are spots open, is there any chance of signing up for the 4x4 games upon arrival?
 
JOIN The UORTC4x4Games Saturday! They are going to be better than ever! Thanks to 'Tarheel 4WD Center' for the Ring and Pinions and Thanks to 'Two Guys Metal Fab' for designing and making them!! See the thread in 'Uwharrie News'.
