RC Drag Race Event pics

This past Saturday, Victoria Palms held its first RC drag race event, which was a great success!. While RC drag racing is very popular in the Valley, our resort has been one of the first to host this kind of event. It was organized by a pair of wonderful residents, Jamie and Sheri Gideon and was sponsored by our local RC experts, New Sun Racing. Concession was available and prizes were awarded to all of the winners. We love working with residents and sponsors to make fun events like this happen and we truly appreciate all the efforts that were made.

If you are interested in getting into the RC hobby, please consider attending the RC swap meet that will be held Saturday, May 15th. Read more about it here: https://vpractivities.com/2021/05/04/rc-swap-meet/
