Her home indoor track is EN Hobbies and her and her husband have their own outdoor track on their own property (How awesome is that??)🏎️

Her husband is Scott Belcastro. RC Racing has been wonderful for her family to continue to communicate and bond in special ways and sometimes difficult ways. What better way can a family work together, be competitive, communicate and grow as a team? Nothing wrong with a little competition 😉 

She not only manages their RC team but she also pits for her man. She travels all over the US and soon internationally. She has been pictured on live RC in the pits, marshaling and setting Scott down for nitro races. She is well-known in the Northeast area for being a dedicated, hardworking wife and team manager. She sometimes gets down as the team mechanic and is not afraid to get down and dirty. Dang girl!! Get down with your bad self! 

Courtney Rhodes, MidWest Ambassador

Courtney comes to us from Illinois!! 

Her home track is Slideways RC which is located at Fayette County Speedway in Brownstown Illinois.. 

Cole Rhodes is the love of her life. 😍Courtney travels all over the US chasing races and feeding that love of RC. She is a supporter of not just points racing, but charity racing as well. 

They made the journey all the way down to Mississippi to support a St. Judes Charity race. Charity races hit close to home, for not just her, but all of us here at RC Wives as well.  Well done Courtney!! We are proud to call you an RC Wives Ambassador! 

Christie Wilson, West Coast Ambassador

  "My home track is A-main in Chico. I help my husband Dennis Wilson of Wilson Fine design. He’s been racing off and on for the last 15 years or so- give or take a few and I started helping him about four years ago. I absolutely love going to the track with our truck family. We do a lot of traveling all over to the big races that are with JBRL or The Dirt and a lot of those races. We also do a lot of races up North in Chico, Southern California and DNC. We also occasionally do some 10th scale racing at Modesto RC which is located here in Modesto. I love helping the Wives and Girlfriends learn more about the hobby, helping the guys with pitstops and stuff like that. You know it’s just lotta fun. I really enjoy the camaraderie and the fun in general, just getting to know everybody and we really have created and made some long-term friendships and met some amazing people on the way. I hope to continue this as long as I can."  

-Christie Wi

Yolandie Germishuys, South Africa Ambassador

 "My name is Yolandie Germishuys,  I'm a 42 year old proud mother of 2 boys, and live in sunny South Africa. In 2017 I was introduced to RC by my boyfriend Murray van Lelyveld. First I was just the one hanging around the pitlane,  then I started to pit for him.  Before I knew it I was helping him to spanner. In November 2018 I did my first race with my Losi 3.0 electric buggy. Quickly I learned to spanner and even build my own car. Now I'm driving and pitting for my boyfriend and son who also is a keen driver of a Short Corse Truck. The love for the sport has grown so much amongst our family that going to the track is an outing for all of us. Helping to pit, spanner and drive has become the thing to do on a weekend. I'm proud to be called a RC Wife, and hopefully I can show off all our tracks around our amazing Country."  -Yolandie Germishuys

Our State Ambassadors

Danielle Margl, New Jersey Ambassador

Her home track is Barnstormers RC Raceway in Chester New York. They also go to Trains & Lanes Hobbies when they can. She has helped her hubby Pete Margl with washing tires, bodies and have pit for him and other drivers that have become family.


Her hubby Pete has been racing for years and even proposed in 2009 with a Mini T. She originally started to go to R/C races like Motorama, Fall Brawl, LCRC Raceway, and Psycho Nitro Blast so he wouldn’t have to go alone. With taking most of their vacations to go to these races, she has met some incredible people and have grown to love the R/C community. 


In the last year, she has branched out into the crawling R/C world. Pete is team driver for NJ Scale Offroad. They discovered it has a little more freedom because you can just go into the woods with some friends with trucks and not have to wait for a scheduled comp. This can also go on throughout the year, where their outdoor tracks close for the winters. 


Pete has also started to paint R/C bodies for 1/8thscale and crawlers. Together they have worked on making stencils or coming up with different ways to get different effects on the bodies. So, the R/C world has made them grow stronger together. 

Sandy Christy, California Dragster Ambassador

 "My home track is Roselle Street in San Diego, but any good asphalt road or parking lot will do for our drag racers! You know you have it bad when you drive around and check out the streets and parking lots instead of the scenery! I am the number one supporter of my husband, Kyle Christy, and our son Riley Christy. Kyle grew up racing RC cars with his dad and missed it once they stopped. He got back into it when our son was just a little guy because I was that wife who said, “go ahead, build a track in our backyard, and get back into it!” We haven’t looked back since and that was about 13 years ago. It all started with a 10th scale backyard offroad point series race then to SDRC in San Diego when they decided to do indoor offroad racing. We held a few “Race for the Cure” races there in support of Susan G Komen for the Cure, San Diego raising tons of money for the cause. We have been a part of 10th scale offroad and on road, boats, helicopters, 5th scale off road and now drag racing. My husband and I, along with an amazing team, hold the local scene list races, cash days and a few big races each year as well as a point series race between SoCal and Arizona. I can be found at the track on test days to lend a hand to anyone in need. We have made some of the best friends in the RC community who have become our family and I wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world!"  -Sandy Christy 

Kristeena Petersen, Utah Dragster Ambassador

 Bio Coming Soon

Samantha Lieder, Colorado Dragster Ambassador

 "My name is Samantha. My home track is Mhor R/C Raceway in Aurora, Co.

 My husband is Jacob Lieder. He has been doing indoor racing at Mhor since he was younger and started to get back in it when we got together. We spent so much time at our home track that we started to work there in the hobby shop. Our 15 year old daughter picked up a controller a year ago and started doing drag racing ever since. She liked it so much we started a club Norco No Prep. It has turned into not only a brand but business. We go to different drag races all weekend here in Colorado, so you will also find us helping out at Jt R/C. It is now what we do to spend time together. My husband and daughter race, I run our races that we hold on the weekends we aren't traveling for it, and I coordinate & schedule everything having to do with our travels. Drag racing has become our main focus. I am proud to be an RC Wife to help out any of our racers anywhere we go in any way that I can." -Samantha Lieder

Jasmine Robbins, California Ambassador

Jasmine is a happily married RC Wife and mom to two amazing, wild, rambunctious boys. Her husband Ricky Robbins has been driving RC cars for over 20 years, and now the whole family is hooked! Jasmine spends most of her time wrangling the boys, or turn marshalling out on the track. You'll nearly always find her with a smile on her face and a glass of wine in her hands.   


When the family isn't attending RC events they spend their free time camping, mountain bike riding, fishing on their boat and hiking. Outdoors is their happy place.  


Jasmine hopes to learn how to drive an RC car one day, but for now is content to assist her husband and sons with their cars. Cleaning, pitting and making sure there are always snacks!  And of course, making new friends among the women at the track. If you listen closely you might catch a hint of that Australian accent <3
 

Shannon Briner, New Mexico Ambassador

 Shannon started racing 1/10th scale in 2016 and then 1/8th scale in 2017. She first became involved by videoing the races then quickly moved to volunteering to marshal. She looked at it as a great way to “get my steps in”, lessen the “I was screwed by a slow marshal” 😊 remarks post-race, and spend time with the family.  Her Hubby is Michael Norris


About 6 months into Norris starting 1/8th scale nitro she finally started to be his pit lady. She’s a competitive person by nature and quickly learned that any mistakes made in the pits could cost the race. She encourages racers’ significant others to become involved by pairing up with them to teach them how to pit. She also shares her story and how she wasn’t always this involved and that she was scared at first because she didn’t want to mess up.  


She enjoys the camaraderie, competition, helping others, meeting new people, family time, and the chill time in camp enjoying a really hoppy IPA.


Shannon’s home track for 1/10th scale is Inside Line Raceway & Hobby Shop (formerly RC Riot) in Albuquerque. Her 1/8th scale home track is Overlook RC Car Raceway in White Rock New Mexico. They also frequent Sun City R/C Raceway near El Paso Texas as often as possible.

Rebecca "Becky Jo" Barth, Indiana Ambassador

"My name is Becky Barth from Warsaw, Indiana. My home tracks are RC Fun Park by The Tower (1/8Scale) in Granger, In. NWI Indoor RC DragStrip ( DragRacing) in East Chicago, In. 


I got started in the world of RC Racing as an announcer for 11 years at SS Hobbies & Raceway in Tampa, FL. That is where I met my husband Tim.  We raced 1/8th Scale Nitro Off-road. I do some tiny maintenance, parts runner and most important pitgirl at all the races we attend. We have traveled to many states to go racing.  Some of the races we attended are Fall Brawl, Wicked Weekend, SIC & PNB for 1/8 Scale. For DragRacing we have traveled to Michigan and Illinois.


I enjoy helping out other drivers when they are in need of someone. I love to get all the wives excited about Rc racing. I’m so passionate about RC Racing that I got married at PNB on the track by the track master Bobby Moore in 2017." -Rebecca Barth
