Make a RC Wish:
"Make a RC Wish" is a
complete ready to race RC Car given, FREE, to a
kid who doesn't have the $$$$ to get into the hobby.
I'm Rev. Terrance, I received the first "Make a RC Wish" cars, Feb 2004
my older brother passed away. My younger brother (has raced RC cars for
over 20 years!) gave me (3/4/04) a RC10B3, complete with radio,
charger, battery's, wheels, repair parts and tools. To assist me in
recovering from the loss. September 2006 he gave me the OK to give the
RC10B3 away.
Greg (owner of Farmers
Hobby Shop & Raceway), noticed a kid (Dylan) at the track,
brought him to my attention. Dylan has now become one of the anchors in
the Eletric truck class!

"Make a RC Wish" has a lead person who does the leg work getting the
info out and getting the parts in, then puts the package together.
Make a RC Wish I and II (B3 and T3) I owned, the rest was donated, the
Duratrax ST (IV) was one of Greg's personal trucks. Farmers forum, word of
mouth and the hearts of the racers at Farmers have built "Make a RC
Wish" what it is today!!
If your track has a forum start there, if its a club start at a
meeting. Ask for a donor car, parts, tools, charger and bat's. The car
has to be complete, ready to race, with charged bat's! So the kid can
race that night. Farmers lets the kid race that night free.
Only one (real) rule who gets the car can not sell it! It's free to
them, they can pass it on for free or return it to be given out again
(Make a RC Wish I, I "B" & V are the same car).

How do we find/determine who gets a "Make a RC Wish"?
Many racers TRUST us with parts/cars to bless a kid with a complete
"Ready to Race" car. The staff of MRCW does NOT take this lightly! We
list these base requirements for getting a MRCW car, so ALL racers will
continue to trust us in this endeavor.
Basicly seperate the "Haves" from the "Have Nots"!

Age 8 - 16
Boy OR Girl
A racer or one of the MRCW staff will bring to the attention, a boy OR
girl who doesn't have the funds to get into this hobby, of one of the
MRCW staff.
We then meet the dad/mom to determine IF dad/mom can fund the start up
in this hobby.
To find out what RC history the kid has.
To find out how they will get to the track each/every other week to
race.
We also check out the racer who nominated the kid.
Are they (the racer) are willing to assist the kid in learning how to
maintain AND race the car.

If dad/mom can fund a startup, its a no.
If dad/mom has a RC car, its a no.
If the kids brother/sister has a RC car, its a no.
If the racer who nominated the kid isn't willing to assist, its a no.
If they can't get to the track to race the car, its a no.
