I just wanted to thank everyone who participated in the event on Saturday as I heard it was a great time! The kids will be very ecstatic over the holiday's I am sure. The Marine's were impressed with how many Toys for Tot's we were able to bring in as well as some of the local radio stations. Some said they heard plugs for all the hard working people (racers and staff) at Steel City Hobbies.... it could not be done with out YOU and I (and everyone) appreciates your continued support for all the charity work, and for the racing in general! Also, a HUGE thanks to all who brought in food to fatten up everyone! I heard it was all gone by 2PM and that it was A LOT of GOOD food! I am sorry that I was sick as a dog and could not make it at all. :( We are looking forward for the New Year and plan on having exciting racing again! We are open for racing this Friday night for $5 an entry for Road Course. We should start around six and keep it to 1 qualifier and 1 main. Saturday we can do the same with Oval starting at noon if anyone is interested. We close at 3 on Saturday. Merry Christmas!

This starts around 10am and runs thru 3pm all for NO COST! It gets better... it is a great time for you, the kids and even your parents... Free entertainment and FREE FOOD for those who want some good eats! Last years event was a blast and SCH is happy to continue to help promote R/C to the Pittsburgh area! The rain is supposed to stop in the morning so that opens up hours of free R/C fun If you have an off-road vehicle... you can race on-road as well... OR play in the mud!
