Default Quick question to anyone who did RRCi meets in the 90's

Just trying to remember some of the names, who was the guy that used to always win the Standard class? Long blonde hair and glasses, think it was Mark someone???

Yeah that's what I thought, just can't remember his name and it's been bugging me!

The RRCi meets were always good as an inbetween for regionals and Nationals, always busy and usually had a good few big names!

Ben beat me to it, im guessing it would be Mark Wray. He was from Nottingham and used to race with me and the old man at Donisthorpe. I think he was a Schumacher driver

Hi Nick,
Yep, Mark Wray - I know he's on Facebook if you were after him.

That's it!!!!! Well done that man....

It was just bugging the hell out of me, me and my Dad were talking about some of the "Good old days" - I've got a load of old Mags in the loft so I should get on and go through them and scan some pics of some of the names on here ;-)

Also really need to do some VCR to DVD Conversions but need to get a VCR first - I've got loads of old R/C racing on video, everything from RRCi meets, Nationals, Juniours, Euro's...... Should do it soon before they
deteriorate really.

I have Mary Wray's old Rc10 team at my house. He sold it to my friend when he went to schumacher. Came with loads of bits including an old andys conversion chassis which had trailing link rear wishbones.
