What is the best freebies you have brought home from a race?

Post by biff85ta »

Just curious what kind of goodies others on here have scored from the door prizes at races. I just got lucky over the weekend and scored a KO RSX one10 servo at the Hudy race held at Prolevel Rc in St Louis. I scored a set of VTA tires at the VTA Southern Nationals and a couple of other little things. This far all my bigger races have been on the rug but I am considering the Jconcept Indoor race later this month.

Back in 2007 at the Knox Vintage Enduro, I cam home with awesome sunburn.... glowed in the dark for three days.

You guys got some nice stuff!

The only things I ever got were a 1.9" spare tire cover and a winch hook for crawlers at a local comp. I donated the cover back to the event organizers for Crawlers For Kids.
