This one was a doozy, but the day has finally come.....

America has broken the "100 RC drift track barrier". It's a very proud day for us, as we have watched the hobby grow over the years and this is a milestone we always knew America would reach.

After carefully placing every track on the map and adding up all of the tracks, tracks with shops, SDC competition tracks, and the seven "heritage tracks", we totaled up 123 tracks for America.
This is no small accomplishment. This is the result of the work of thousands of people. Not just track owners and hobby shop owners, but hobbyists who tell their friends about RC drifting, help newcomers to feel welcome, and teach others how to tune. This hobby is not easy to get into or to understand how it works, but with the help of a good community and track It is possible.

Thank you to everyone who has put in the effort to show people The RC drift hobby and to all of the shop owners who have gone out on a limb to support its growth.

Dark Mag Is very proud to present the first RC Drift map to break 100 tracks!

(We're not crying, you're crying)

Thank you guys

Guess what's coming up this weekend!

DARC Mag had the pleasure of speaking with Pandora-RC's CEO, Arihiro Wada, about the inner workings of the manufacturing process. This is one of our favorites, as we have been big Pandora fans for a long time and we value the impact they have had on the American RC Drift Culture.
