A Word of Appreciation

A special thank you is extended to each of the host clubs for granting permission to conduct Formosa racing.

Safety

Racing is more than speed. It involves selection of components, assembly of the airframe and preparation before each race event with consideration for safety of both participants and spectators. Racing is about competition in a safe atmosphere. Let’s strive for a safe Formosa race series in 2012.
