Where in the World is: Steve Pond

Post by drbelleville »

I am curious, besides Chris C. Steve was my favorite Radio Control Car Action Editor, etc. enjoyed the articles and contributions.

Anyone in the know?

I think I saw him at RCX. He's not hard to miss.

Last I read he was the ROAR president and also working with Kyosho. That was about a year ago

As a confirmation I'm pretty sure I read that same info on here somewhere.

He works for Kyosho as mentioned. I have talked to him a few times, as I have accounts with Kyosho for my shop and call about orders. We talk about the "goode ole' days" and his time at RCCA.

And when he isn't fielding calls about kyosho cars he finds time to listen to people bitch and whine about the ROAR Rules and other issues people have. One of the cool things is he does want to return to the roots of RC in some ways and all the technical stuff, Boost, timing, etc are kinda ruining the sport.


I'll direct him over here perhaps. maybe we can get a "Ask the ROAR Pres." thread!

What great articals he did for RCCA .

The first artical that I read was issue 3 I think on the Tamiya FOX. Sporting a black paint job and a Le Mans 480 Gold doing a rooster shot on the beach.

Aaaah the good old days
