Swauger & Burch wins RAMS 40th race

The R.A.M.S. club of Northern California, located in Santa Clara just south of San Francisco, had a race to celebrate the clubs 40th year of continuous running. For this race they had a full turnout of 130 entrants for both sedan 10th scale and 8th scale which included some old members who were invited out to the race and as a result many past members showed up and brought out their old cars and radio gear. The racing saw the 1/8th scale TQ go to Mugen team driver Mike Swauger, while in Sedan it was Jeffery Lin from OFNA that took top honours. With each class getting a 45 minute A-main, held in perfect California sunshine, it was Mike Swauger that won in 8th scale followed by Kyosho racer Jim Adkins and Ron Collangi, also a Mugen driver, in 3rd spot. In the sedan class it was Ralph Burch that took the win with his Xray followed by Jeffery Lin for OFNA, and young Kyosho driver Michael Palazzola in 3rd.
