Today we’d like to introduce you to Brian Cannaday.
So, before we jump into specific questions about the business, why don’t you give us some details about you and your story.
In February of 2016, I started up an FB group called Chi-Town R/C Crawlers in search of other R/C crawler enthusiasts. Several weeks later I posted a GTG at a local city because the weather was supposed to in the 50’s.
We had 12 members show up and had a blast. Since then Chi-TownRC.com has grown an now we have over 400 members. We host large R/C events year round and work with ABT Electronics to host a full-scale car show and R/C event to raise money for Autistic children each year.
Additionally, we host several R/C Swap meets and help aid in keeping the hobby of R/C prevalent for today’s youth. We love the hobby and the camaraderie among people of all ages and sex. It has truly become a family group for everyone.
You can check us out at Chi-TownRC.com to find out more about all our R/C groups including Boats, SCT Buggy and Truggy, Crawlers, Outlaws parking lot drag, pulling, on-road racing, 1/5 scale, monster trucks and more.
Great, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
Whenever you run a public group you hit some hurdles. You learn to work with them and move on. It is the dedication and all the great members that fuel the motivation to keep it going!
Please tell us about Chi-TownRC.com.
We are known for bringing the fun and joy of R/C’ing to all ages. We are most proud of our members who make our club what it is!
Do you look back particularly fondly on any memories from childhood?
