Super Cup Championship Series – Round 4.

South Florida rain doesn’t dampen the winning sprit of JConcepts at the SCCS race 4

Event: Super Cup Championship Series
Date: April 28, 2012
Track: CSRCCC / Basher’s RC Raceway

They say April showers bring May flowers. Good for the flowers but not if you are trying to hold an RC race in South Florida. Once again JConcepts hit the road to Coral Springs for the JConcepts Super Cup Championship Series race #4. Friday practice at CSRCCC had threatening skies looming overhead with a thirty percent chance of rain for race day, Saturday afternoon. Well all thirty percent seemed to pour down Saturday morning. With a few phone calls there now was a plan B which was put into effect to relocate the event to Basher’s indoor RC Raceway in Palm Beach Gardens. Thanks to modern technology and email, Gmail, Texting, Facebook, RCTech, and any other form of communication you can think of, the word quickly spread to the racers about the move. Special thanks to Brian Buckley owner of Basher’s RC Raceway for having a well prepared venue, able to host 185 racers at a moments notice.
