SCORE (Savannah Chatham Off Road Racing Enthusiasts Score-racing.com) continues to grow and prosper in 2009. Club President Jason Brown and the dedicated crew spent over $2000.00 and many hours preparing for the Georgia Championship Series (GCS) second visit this year. The race track was perfect for the Georgia Championship Series Round 9! The new rc track design included new jumps, hard pipes, and the very 1st signs of track elevation changes. With the R/C Pro Series East Division visiting in a few short weeks, SCORE is ready for the best drivers in the South East.
