The Karl Mackie Memorial Race Against Cancer was established in 2002 in honor of my dad, Karl Mackie who lost his battle with cancer in July 2002. As both my dad and I were avid RC racers, I thought it was fitting to hold an event like this in his honor to help raise money for the Canadian Cancer Society. 2002
I planned a small benefit race. When I say small I mean it. Only 6 drivers attended for a total of 11 entries. This race was held in a church gym that has a rubber floor. Lap counting was done manually we raced on-road and off-road vehicles in an oval race. We raised about $600.00 2003
The race grew a little bit. We had 11 racers attend for a total of 22 entries AMB was kind enough to lend me one of their systems and software. We ran Stock touring, stock micro and stock oval (this is what my dad and I raced together). We had lots of fun, The race was held in the church gym again. Past Cleveland champ Wayne Vince attend race. We raised about $800.00 2004
The race grew a little larger again. We had 17 racers attend for 28 total entries. AMB let me borrow a system again. We ran Stock touring, stock micro, stock 12th scale and stock oval. The race was held in the church gym again. Past Cleveland champ Wayne Vince attend race. We raised about $950.00 2005
The race again grew a little larger. We had 37 racers attend for 56 total entries. AMB let me borrow a system again. We ran Stock touring, stock micro, stock 12th scale and stock oval. The race was held in the church gym again. We raised about $2000.00 2006

This class only had one legal body, the Protoform ORT body. The bodies were provided by Protoform, painted by myself and provided to each driver registered.
