Default OCRC Onroad Racing

So boys and girls if you had a place to go in the OC to run electric on road (indoors) would you come and play?

Would you race 1 or 2 times a week?

Would you come out if the track was only 70' X 65'

Would you run 10th scale or 12th or for that matter mini cooper or GT?

Let me know

Have a great day

If I lived in the OC I would race there 1-2 times a week. Indoor asphalt would be a dream track.

Many of us like to race modified and 70' is kind of small to really see the potential. I would say 100' is a minimum. .02

bigger is always better but i'd def be there once a week and some weeks twice.

I'm dying for an indoor track to go to during the weeks.

Guranteed once a week and practice 1-2 times a week Track size is good for mini but to draw more people your going to want a bigger track which is good for mini to but much better for sedan. Its kinda like every girl that gets fake boobies after a couple of months they wished they would have gone bigger. Trust me I know

Once a week sounds more likely.

Bigger is better but the track would still be good enough to have fun on.

Would you run 10th scale or 12th or for that matter mini cooper or GT?
TC is the way for me. Mini Cooper are possibly in the near future too.

Let me know

Have a great day

I think its great that someone is trying to get us another place to race.

I would definately like to have another place in OC to run onroad on a regular, weekly basis.

Like most others have said, bigger would be nicer... I prefer to run modified so longer would be ideal for me ...and the 10.5 guys would probably agree as well.

Regardless... you'd get my vote for having another place to run durring the week!
