Roman & Herman selected for ‘Rising Star Program’
A program that was started at the Canadian National Championship in 2018, the ‘Rising Star Program’ was awarded to two young talents of the hobby at the latest running of the Onroad Nationals in Ontario over the weekend. Having made the award for the first time to an American driver Riley Drennen last November at the legendary U.S. Indoor Champs in Cleveland, this time round they selected Julianna Roman and Paxton Herman based on them exhibiting sportsmanship and dedication to the hobby. The panel have looked at Juliana year after year but never had a pan car option so were really pleased to finally give her the award thanks to CRC. Hoping to grow the program and get more manufactures on board so they can expand it around the world they have already been contacted by RC Maker since the latest presentation saying they want to be involved in the future! As part of being selected as ‘Rising Stars’, Julianna and Paxton were each presented with full racing outfits from the program’s supporters – Teamzombie Canada (batteries), Motiv/Gravity (tyres and motors), SJT Tires (tyres), CRC (car kit), Orca (esc), Key Fulcrum (servos), Rs3d Printing (car stands), JT bearings (bearing kits), Outlaw RC (free racing for there class next year), Phoenix RC Raceway (free practice and racing for a season) and Niagara RC (indoor free practice and racing for a season).
