We need an indoor track. This relying on the weather crap is crazy. We need our own place to race in any weather without paying any tolls or traveling for an hour. We need weeknight racing after dinner and you can still be home around 11. We need ActionRC3!

hey guys, stopping by for a quick message from 180 Raceway in Maryland :

Thanks Guys,
Yes , we got a TCS date , we have been working behind the scenes to bring this tradition back to the Maryland area. This is also in conjunction with the Original team that brought TCS to Maryland back in 1995, HobbyWorks will be our associate store for TCS..as some may recall, Mike Brey( owner of HobbyWorks ) and I hosted the series starting in 1995.. wow.. so long ago.. We are Happy to have it back.

SlowBirds !-
Yes, We announcd the Slowbirds a while ago... Several months ago I connected with John Brown owner ( Brownies Hobbies ) , Al Sadano ( former Horsham and current Jackson RC ) and Ray Murray ( for the Music ! ) We all agreed to carry on the Slowbirds Tradition..and that we will , look for unique announcements coming soon for this race ...It will be Different for sure.

Thanks to all that are supporting 180 Raceway, we appreciate it..
see you at the track

There is racing TONIGHT at RC Car World if anyone is interested. I was hoping to get out of work early enough to go, but I won't be. With some unexpected health issues in my household, I haven't been able to race at RCCW or 360 in about 3 weeks. I am miserable! I am going through major RC withdrawals! I need to race! Merry Christmas, everyone!

Default 2017 Beach schedule

I will be making a schedule as soon as I can. We plan on racing all our favorite classes. I.E. TT01 Brownies Spec, TT02 Pro Spec, VTA, Mini, USGT and any other classes that we get at least 4 cars in attendance.

Okay I'll be the first to admit that I don't really know about high performance cars, so can
someone tell me what somebody would do with an 800hp 6.4L All Wheel Drive Car?
That just sounds like an accident waiting to happen!

Commandeer the Ocean Breeze Track on Father Cap. for some oval/velo pan car racing. Staten Island can become the new Lake Whippoorwill or RC Thunderdrome.
