RC-Hobbies in Gresham

Was in there the other week, and they are putting in a 18th scale track. Guy said something about being ready for racing mid October. Was wondering if any one else has heard anything about it.

Is the track going to be big enough for the 1/14 Recoils?

I just found that place over the weekend.

Talked to one of the employees. Nice store, well layed out. The 1/18th track looks cool. Seems like prices are pretty reasonable.

Im just down the street from the closed Aero hobbies, so its nice that three is a LHS deep on the E side.

Nice guys there, and from what I can tell the prices are good to. I also was just down the street when Aero closed. Im now out twards Sandy, so now I am just calmly waiting for these guys to get done, so I have some place close to run again.

If anyone hears an update on when the track will be done, or classes or days theythink they might be racing please let us know.

there still working things out , carpet is going down , as far as class' they have an idea of what they want to run , but depends what shows up to race , 2w 4w mt , im thinking ae rc18b would be the best handling 1/18 , you know with all my 1/18 scale knowledge , which is NONE
