We just wanted to say thank you to everyone for making the Labor Day BBQ Extravaganza such a great time. Days like this really show how awesome our RC community is.
Thank you so much to everyone who chipped in on the potluck, the food spread was incredible. Congratulations to all of our podium finishers and specialty award winners. We threw a ton of gates at you guys across both scales, and the driving was top notch all day.
Appreciate you all for spending your Saturday with us at the Lab.
See you on the rocks soon! βοΈ

π¨ UPDATE: we are tearing up the rulebook for the 50-Gate Micro Marathon π¨
There has been some confusion about the 50-gate endurance course this Saturday. We thought about it, and we decided to make it simple, and WILD!
The Micro Marathon is officially a RUN WHAT YOU BRUNG shootout.
You dont need to worry about fitting into a specific RCMCCA class for the marathon. Bring your baddest, most capable micro rig, with only two exceptions:
π«NO MOA (Motor on Axle)
π«NO Rear Steer (4WS)
Other then that, if you built it, you can run it.
β οΈ Because a 50-gate course takes a massive amount of time to complete, the marathon is one run per driver. You only get one shot, so pick your absolute most reliable rig and make it count.
We are still running RCMCCA C1 & C2 as well as 1/10th scale C1 & C2 open.
We can't wait to drive some trucks, crush some BBQ, and send off summer with all of you.

π¨ Attention Drivers! We are leveling up this weekend. Paper score cards are officially a thing of the past.
Starting at this weekends comp, we are officially moving to Crawler Live for all of our event scoring and leader board tracking!
We want to make our comps as smooth, professional, and competitive as possible. Moving to digital scoring means a better experience for everyone on the rocks.
Here is what the means for you:
β
οΈ Real Time Leader Boards: No more guessing. Know exactly where you sit after every run.
β
οΈ Live Updates: Your buddies and family at home can track your scores in real time.
β
οΈ Faster Results: No more waiting around for manual math, as soon as the last run finishes, the podium is set.
If you are bringing your 1/10 or Micro rigs out this weekend, here is your homework:
1οΈβ£ Download the Crawler Live App and create your account.
2οΈβ£ Search for our event, RC Lab Comp Day 8/22/26 and register.
We are pumped to bring this level of competition tracking to the local scene.
We are still buzzing from an incredible weekend at the first annual RCMCCA Nationals at Key City Hobby!
We've got so many photos and videos to sift through. Here is a quick highlight reel from the event. Watching drivers from all over the country tackle these technical courses was an absolute blast.
Keep an eye on out page over the next few days as we share more of the action, the builds, and behind the scenes moments from the weekend.
