Autocross For A Cure

Steel City Hobbies was asked to help out with this charity event as Steel City Hobbies is no stranger to lending a helping hand. The event pulled in about 120 registered racers. SCH asked AB Charles to help produce R/C activities for the show.

Below are a few pictures and videos from the race day. Hopefully next year the event will be hosted somewhere a little more visible such as Heinz Field in Pittsburgh. This year was the 2nd year and it was located at the Washington County airport.. a little off the beaten path!

Steel City Hobbies set up a nice display to show off some past events, and some R/C goods.

Thank you to AB Charles for making the appearance to help out with the show.

AB came armed with some heavy R/C artillery!
