Maybe you know that 1/4 scale racing in France begin in 1989 with the R21
at the end of 90's French federation "removed" 1/4 scale racing and only promote 1/5...
BUT...
in south of France some guys continue to race since this date...
this year was the 20th Villeneuve Grand Prix (1/4 scale race) with 17 riders. (so since 1989)
in 2003 was created a Challenge called VHR (or VHRC) For Historical Radiocontroled Vehicles.
the 2009 one has just ended after 7 rounds on Castelsarrasin track.
i am happy to show you the story of 2009 VHR in pics and videos...

Re: 1/4 racing events in France
That's really cool. I love how you have all those "collector" cars out on the track running, right where they should be.
