Hostile, I must say THANK YOU too for also making such an effort on your own accord.
Events like these are what further the hobby and in a healthy, proper, and ethical way.
Definitely two thumbs up from me [sm=thumbup.gif][sm=thumbup.gif]

Does FG put on any events like this in the US? LOL Just had to say that Savagejim.

hpi are the big boys in america & its in america where all there buisness was catered for with the 5b making huge amounts of fans, thats why they do events like this.
like i say if you were to compare levels of sponsorships between hpi & FG would dominate over and over

I would love to see FG sponsored events in the US, at least to get themselves exposed in the US further.
Likewise, I wonder if HPI does much in sponsoring events in Europe? Most everyone there has heard of the 5B and 5T.
I think FG would actually do okay in the US with a little more exposure here. They are afterall an industry standard RC

hpi are huge....they first hit of the r/c big with nitro models then when gas r/c cars went big they were in there with the 5b to make there mark and they have.
fg i think myself are huge cause of there impact in the onroad/track racing all around the globe,then the fact that they operate central europe and supply all of there own winning teams sure where could you go wrong..its a big industry...
but like you say they never actually impacted big here in the states did they?
i think that was the first idea behind the fg mt for other markets like america where they originated.

There were no FG's in the 4x4 races. It was all MCD's with 1 Redcat. I wish I could get the results of that race, as I still don't know where I finished.
