To my Friends, and fellow RCSparks Family -

Today I get the immense pleasure of Announcing the WiNNER of the "WiN an ELiTE MEMBERSHiP for 1 YEAR" Picture & Community Spirit Contest.

There were 75 Valid Entries! WOW! I am SO Stoked that our community has come as far as it has, with Members from all around the World!


I must admit something - something that may be deemed as a little - Devilish


I had an Alternate plan for putting this Contest together for our community.

My goal for this community has always been about Connecting hobbyists from all around the world with each other, and to create a centralized place for everyone to share this Pictures, Videos, and RC Experiences. What I have found is we have had a culmination of RC ADDiCTS come and make their home here at the RCSparks Studio forums - sharing ideas, helping each other, and meeting new friends!

This is the kind of Community Spirit I love to see & I like to reward the amazing efforts of the people that spend time browsing the forums and being an ACTiVE Community Participant.


For this single reason - EVERYONE THAT ENTERED THiS CONTEST - is A WiNNER OF AN ELiTE STATUS FOR 1 YEAR!


ALL 75 of YOU!
