Gee, that brings back memories...this kind of racing was a big thing around here for a while, but that was about 20 years ago. It sure was fun.

Hey Allen. Actually, don't have an RC car or airplane. Just went there for the show. I am planning on going out a week from Friday. Races are in the evening and the race next week is a points race so there should be some pretty decent competition.

You interested in going Allen? Let me know and I'll get directions posted. I'll meet you there.

Gary, what do you have?

I used to race them too. About 15 years ago when I was stationed in Maryland in the Marines. I had an RC-10T. I raced the dirt track and then moved to hardtop out here because there was no dirt tracks when I got out of the Corps. I had some trophies from dirt and one from street. My son used to think I raced real off-road trucks and was a champion. LOL!
