* Brain Trust

Long ago the RCFFS Leadership Team had this brainy idea to create a series of fun races for us open wheelers driving Formula F, CF and HF cars. We refer to this illustrious group as the “The Brain Trust of RCFFS”. According to various descriptions, a Brain Trust is an informal group of smart advisors or a bunch of decision makers who are not so bright (source urban dictionary). So if you have any comments or suggestions on the brilliance of RCFFS decisions please use the Contact page to send a message to the Brain Trusters.
