What started out many years ago as Mike Reedy's vision to showcase the world’s best drivers in a format unlike any other ever used in RC racing, has grown to be one of the most anticipated and prestigious RC races in the world.
Reedy, Tamiya America, and Scotty Ernst Productions are proud to announce that after a five-year absence, the Reedy International Touring Car Race of Champions will return to the Tamiya America circuit May 22-25, 2014.
After 5 years, two fantastic brands, AE and Tamiya are joining forces to provide a fantastic race. Not unlike the Prestigious Reedy Off Road, the Reedy Touring Invitational Class(and Open) offer fantastic, top notch racing.
When The location was announced, my child like mind immediately imagined the greatest touring car racers in the world with not yet released, prototype cars, ready to blow minds on the RedRC Twitter feed.
Like The Jet-Vulcan:
Awesome. Although I had no idea this existed until I had gone further into the Tamiya website than Jang and Ultimate Tamiya could even dream of going. I was in deep on Tamiya.com and there seemed to be now way to get back to 1:1.
But, dang. Imagine Reedy racers piloting a machine like the Jet-Vulcan going "wing to wing" with a Black-Atlas or the Dyna Triger on the Sochi Sliding Center like walls of the fifure 8 Dangun Circut:
This smoothly curved track is just what Dangun Racers require to reach their top speeds and push past rival cars for the lead. In fact, what is unique about the Dangun Circuit is that all the action happens on the same track-no barriers between your car and your rivals'! That means exciting bumping, jostling, sliding, and passing, all at break-neck speeds. Quality constructed Dangun Circuit features simple snap together assembly and does not require any tools.
Well, a blogger can dream.
The good news is that they'll be shredding mod and 13.5 touring cars around the beautiful Tamiya Raceway in Aliso Viejo, California
Gorgeous facility. It seems that Timaya uses the track for teasting most of the time. On Saturdays though, the track is open to the public.
This video highlights the onroad asphalt track and possibly the most authentic baja course:
I can't wait to watch the best go toe to toe at the 2014 Reedy Onroad.
As long as I'm dreaming of the possibilities of the track I' also like to think they take only the best cars, trucks and buses to get there:
Take care
-Tommy
