Radio Control: Pylon Racing

THIS MONTH I will bring you up to date on some of the races from 1997, and talk about some of the new "legal" Quarter Midget kits that are going to be available for the 1998 racing season. I am sure that most of you have already heard that Jim Shinohara passed away. Jimmy was a great asset to this hobby, and to the people who knew him. He was in Czechoslovakia at the F3D World Championships. During a round he had a heart attack and was taken to a hospital in Sumperk. Unfortunately he never regained consciousness and died October 6. During this ordeal his family took trips from the States to be with him.
