Morales puts pressure in R/C races
Reggie Aribon got some serious pressure from Seth Morales, 12, as Aribon battled hard to take the Top Qualifier and top honors in the Nitro Sedan ‘A’ division at the Sunday races held at the Big Kmart parking lot course.
Dennis Ginez came from the back of the pack to take all three mains of the Nitro Sedan ‘B’ division with Kaikea Kaanaana dominating the Nitro Truck class.
Special thanks to Big Kmart manager Jarrett Chytka for the use of the store’s west parking lot.
The next Garden Isle R/C racers will be held Nov. 2 at the Wailua off-road race track located next to the moto-x track.
Race time is 11 a.m. with free admission. For more information, contact Arnold at 821-8132, or 639-9314.
