Everybody knows that Friday is meant for reminiscing old times. Each week we take you back in time as we flashback to some of R/C racing's greatest moments, products, drivers, and more!
Flashback: 2007Masami Hirosaka drives at the Cactus Classic with his feet
Everyone has their favorite drivers, and everyone has a different opinion of who the best driver in the world really is, was, and will be. The year was 2007, and the annual SRS Cactus Classic was taking place as usual. Legendary racer, Masami Hirosaka, was in attendance looking to further his mind boggling collection of wins and championships.
Just watching Masami Hirosaka drive an R/C car (even to this day) is not only an honor, but a display of unbelievable talent and skill. At the 2007 Cactus Classic, Masami demonstrated that unbelievable talent and skill in more ways than one. The crowd gathered as he put on a half-time show first driving with his radio behind his back, and finishing by driving a lap using only his feet!
While his lap times using the radio behind his back and/or with his feet weren't quite as fast as HIS normal times, we still bet they are faster than some of ours.
