Rommel Isidro made it to the podium three times during the Saipan Radio Control Racers September event held last Sunday in As Lito.<\/p>\n

Dickinson took the pole in the Electric 1\/10 Short Course Stock event, but in the end settled for another silver finish, this time behind Paul Salalila\u2019s Kyosho SC-R Ultima, while Isidro claimed the third spot.<\/p>\n
Rodney Catalla\u2019s Team Associated RT-8T finished first in the Nitro 1\/8 Truggy Class race, ahead of Isidro\u2019s Mugen MBX5T, while Emir Abuan\u2019s Kyosho STRR beat top qualifier Jojo Saracho for third place. Saracho drove a Mugen MBX6T.<\/p>\n
There are over 20 active SRCR members, and growing, and they regularly take part in practices at the As Lito track every Saturday from 2pm to 6pm. <\/p>\n
The group tries to hold a daylong race, once a month, usually on Sundays from 9am to 5pm and hosts events in three classes. The open class, intended for novice drivers, was added as a result of additional turnout. The public is welcome to check out the track to learn more about their sport\/hobby.<\/p>\n
