FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE




Two of the best-known names in R/C racing will be joining forces this July to sponsor this year’s ROAR 1/8 Scale Off-Road Nationals.

Hobbico, Inc. of Champaign, IL, revealed that O’Donnell® Racing and Futaba® Corporation will be the title sponsors for the event. The races, which will be held July 15-19, will be hosted by the Leisure Hours Raceway in Joliet, IL.

“We’re totally stoked,” said Hobbico Spokesman Scott Cramer. “Leisure Hours’ has one of the best facilities in the country. And since the Nationals will be taking place practically in our own back yard, we really wanted to be involved.”

“Entry’s for this year’s event sold out in less than forty-eight hours and the competition lately has been incredible,” added Cramer, “so we’re expecting this year’s event to be one for the ages. Hopefully we can add to our all ready impressive list of national championships for O’Donnell and Futaba.”

O’Donnell and Futaba will also be serving as the title sponsors for the Nationals Warm-up Race at Leisure Hours Raceway on May 30 & 31.
