2007 Snowbirds Nationals - Orlando
This IS an Event! My Hubby, Jaylen & I stopped in
to check it all out. The Legacy Grand Hotel on
International Drive in Orlando was pretty much
overtaken by the Snowbird Nationals. What a great
location for this international affair with
everything nearby! Hotel rooms were converted in
pit areas as well as a Hobby Shop ran by Superior
Hobbies. I did the rounds and saw a bunch of
familiar faces and tons of new ones. I was told
there were over 400 registered racers with many
competing in several classes. I should note that
there were 5 women racers. My home girls Toni and
her Mom Lynn, of course, and I had the pleasure of
meeting Carissa and Diane. All 4 ladies are
featured on the RC Racers page of this website.
There were 7 on-road classes and 9 oval classes.
The track, located in the hotel ballroom, was
carpeted and was easily converted from on-road to
oval. There were live radio interviews courtesy of
RC Race’n Radio (rctalklive.com) and they also
interviewed winners right after the races! How
cool is that! I think I’ll do the Snowbird one of
these days but not before nitro Winternats!
Winternats is calling my name so I’ll be there for
2008. I will be at the finals for the 2007
Winternats to check out the Top Dogs this week-end
in Fort Myers. Look out for my upcoming report.
For now check out the photos for the 2007 Snowbird
Nationals.
