I attended Snoball for a number of years and was a support driver for a couple. It's a great time and event. You will be fine, plenty of experienced people to help you when needed. Enjoy the scenery and the other Raptor owners. If you don't get stuck at least once, you're not having a good enough time. Just remember my approach; When in doubt, throttle out. You might enjoy reading this. The original Snoball 500 was the first Raptor event I attended over 10 years ago.

About the radio, I’ve seen the options here but also saw a bunch around 200$ on Amazon vs 400$. Other than VHF 50WIMG_0232.png, does it have other requirements? Would something like this work?IMG_0231.png
