real race car drivers using rc's? (nascar in pertiuclar)

[stormperson]

i am a huge fan of speedvision, and watch it aton. (as i am sure many of you do too) and i was watching inside winston cup a few weeks back and they profiled tony stewart, in the thing it said under hobbies, radio controlled cars, then while i was checking out the site dirtoval.com they had a pic of him working on his 1/10 mod oval car or something. then this week they had bobby labonte profiled and it also said remote controlled cars (i always wondered if it was remote or radio, or both, but radio sounds better, thus the mag title... anway)

anyone ever seen these guys at tracks? i hear that richard petty goes to r/c madness in ct (They have one crappy pic, but i doubt it him, he doesnt even have hat, bu then again...) but he lives in NC right? or somewhere around there? why would he go to CT to watch 1/10's. but theni the results it said he raced tmaxx's and onroad nitro's.

guys?(gals? wanna be pc)comments?

There is a whole thread related to Tony Stewart racing in indiana on www.dirtoval.com (http://www.dirtoval.com)
They talk about how he has a custom works car prepared for him every year for a annual race,since that is all he will race.It also mentions how one year he took everyone that raced to a local go cart track he had rented out.

Labonte and Stewart both are friends with the Sylvia brothers so it doesnt suprize me that they race, I would love to meet The King at a track. I'll have to start pan car racing (and move to the states).
