Thumbs up Congratz to Fro-Daddy!

Congratz to Fro-Daddy for placing 3rd in tonights RC drift comp at Archerfield! He was up against some much more experienced competitors, and was able to slap together awsome runs 50% of the time, which was enough to secure third spot. His 3rd place winning race was very exciting stuff!

3rd prize was his choice of a custom pre-painted drift body shell, or 2 different types of ABS drift tyres. To my surprise our 3rd place getter got first dibs in the prize pool, and he went with the higher spec drift tyres.

I can't wait to challenge him next month with my Datsun of the RC world!
Gav.
