   Hey guys and welcome to Married to RC. We are excited to be back from hiatus with our new Hump Day Happy Hour Series. During our race season, we connect with our community by going live on Facebook each week on Wednesday evening on facebook and youtube.

   015: 5 Simple Ways to Support Your Local RC Track (That Cost You Nothing)

   If you love your local RC track… this episode is for you. In today’s conversation, we’re pulling back the curtain on what it really takes to keep a local RC facility alive and thriving. Tracks aren’t run by corporations — they’re run by families. By racers. By people who care deeply about this hobby and the community around it. And the truth is, the smallest actions from racers can make the biggest difference. We’re breaking down 5 simple ways you can support your local RC track — most of which cost you absolutely nothing: • Why paying with cash or check matters more than you think• How one comment on social media can change everything• The power of saying something positive online• Why bringing a friend (or being a friend) grows the culture• And how supporting the hobby shop keeps the doors open This isn’t about guilt. It’s about awareness. Because if your local track disappeared tomorrow… would you wish you had shown up differently? If RC racing has given you friendships, memories, and weekends you’ll never forget — this episode is your reminder that community goes both ways. Support the track that supports your weekends. 🎧 Listen now on Apple Podcasts & Spotify.

   In today’s episode of Married to RC, I am incredibly excited to welcome a very special guest and dear friend—Allison Ruona of JConcepts.

    009: Meet Them With a Drink: The Mindset That Changed Our Business

    What if the thing that truly sets your business apart has nothing to do with what you sell—and everything to do with how you make people feel? In this episode of Married to RC, Christa and Kevin Mummah share the mindset that quietly transformed LCRC Raceway and reshaped the way they think about hospitality, customer service, and community. They call it “Meet Them With a Drink.” And no—it’s not about the drink. It’s about setting the tone the moment someone arrives. Making people feel comfortable before they ask for help. Treating racers not just as customers, but as guests. From pit parties and wash stations to concierge trash service, golf cart rides, and fixing cars whenever possible, Christa and Kevin break down the small, intentional acts that create unforgettable experiences—and why those moments matter more than any trophy. They also talk honestly about how hard it can be to keep this mindset when you’re exhausted, dealing with negativity, or navigating tough days—and why hospitality matters most in those moments. Whether you’re an RC racer, track owner, small business operator, or anyone who wants to build loyalty and community, this episode is a reminder that people may forget what you did—but they’ll never forget how you made them feel. 🎧 Married to RC — real conversations about business, marriage, and building something meaningful in the RC world.
