OVERVIEW
About RC Academy
RC Car Academy is a new venture, born from the love and passion for both the sport and people! It is built on the knowledge and skills of two RC fanatics, Jannie Labuschagne and Abri Kohn, with the dream to make the sport accessible to everyone – from ages 6 to 80. Our aim is to do this in an affordable and fun way.
RCA will supply RC Cars for training sessions thus reducing the cost and making the sport accessible and affordable to almost anyone.
RCA is focussing on 1/10th scale, electric powered, off-road cars as its training medium. In this RC discipline there are various clubs in Gauteng with our local club being Ultra Raceway in Toutrek park, Gezina.
