And Myself and the other owner of FHR, Billy Ho, Will be meeting with the BARONA band of Indians Tomorrow.
For those of you familiar with Barona, It is a RACING compound.
Much like nitro pit. Drag strips, sand and asphalt, Dirt oval, Motocross.
They are very receptive about a track so far on the phone.
Tomorrow is the meeting/Walk of the area. Hopefully this pans out as well as it looks.

Hot box is an option. They are still running and I hear they recently bought an AMB system. Racing over there may be a possibilty in the near future. It is outdoor though. Nothing wrong with but indoor is super nice. I am not sure what there current schedule is for practice right now either. Also no parts support.

You cannot please everyone. They did not stock Kyosho either. You have to admit some parts is better then no parts. There are too many cars out there now to make it realistic to carry parts for everything from mini to monster. I think So Cal did a great job of stocking there shelves though.

Dave, keep us posted on the outcome of the meeting! That is great news for all of us. If you need help with something, I've found there are always R/C people eager to lend a helping hand if you just ask. Good luck!

Not sure what track you're referring to, but holeshots work the best for both in truck. Holeshots work well for both in buggy, but some prefer red X-#000s at socal.

Holeshots are a safe tire for So Cal. I like Pink Kingpins and Pink X-?000 tires in 2wd. About anything up front will work in truck. Buggy usually a red 7202 or a LP M3 proline tire.

Good luck to everyone racing tomorrow night. I will be thinking of you all but I will be heading out of town for a family camping trip.

Thanks, Casper. We are headed down today to get our last laps of SoCal practice before tomorrow. I'm still stunned it's closing.
