Silly Season News from Scale Racing Sports…
There certainly have been a lot of things going on since we wrapped up the third addition of the Blue Ridge Nationals this past October! Recently, there have been a number of you reaching out and inquiring about race dates for 2022, and the “yet to be confirmed, but pending closure of the APEX Center”.
While I cannot confirm or deny the closure at this point, I can tell you that our event dates for 2022 have not been renewed.
The only constant in life is change and after much reflection and deliberation our family has decided that change is necessary. Therefore, we have decided that Scale Racing Sports will cease its operations effective as of this announcement.
There were many underlying factors leading to this decision… Some RC related news that has already been announced, some RC related news that is still developing as well as other factors not RC related.
During this past off-season our attention and focus has shifted to our family and the emerging needs of aging parents with myriad of health conditions. With Kristina and I living across the country from all of our parents, their care and subsequent needs are quickly becoming a full-time (second) job.
I want to extend my most sincere appreciation to all of you who participated in SRS events and in doing so became friends! There is nothing that I wanted more, for all of you, than to continue to build our racing programs and events and provide the additional opportunities that enable our hobby to grow. Please do not mourn the end but celebrate the good times, good friends, and great events! It sure was a good run!
Until we see each other again at the track, cheers!
Josh, Kristina, Chase, Makenzie and of course… Ms. Jan
p.s. That being said, I know a guy with a turn-key RC racing operation available if anyone is interested…
