Thunder Alley RC Raceway Club Racing
Hey Guys, I know Thunder Alley already has there nats thread, but considering the nats are over, I thought it appropriate to start a new thread dedicated to club racing and any all events that partake at Thunder Alley in Beaumont, Ca. I am doing this because club racing has been somewhat non-existent at TA for sometime now, and rather than me going to a different track, I would like to try and get more racers from around California, and neighboring states to come visit and race. Here is a link to there website http://www.thunderalleyrcraceway.com/ . Here is a video of drake running on the current layout http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HiIQprEu7Fc . The track is great as well as the atmosphere that is present there on a daily basis. If you are curious about this track come on out and race.

I think its a great idea to get racing going again at T/A. I know it has been some time. Its just the nature of the hobby i guess. People will go where people go, to race. I am always willing to hit up T/A for a club race! It's one of, if not the best, tracks around.
Once people know that racing will be happening, im sure it will get good turnouts again. This is a good start!
So Cal has many choices of tracks to hit up. I like to go to all of them. Keeps ya on your toes, ya know?
Keep this thread alive!!

Yeah Rick & Rob are a couple of great guys for sure! They have helped out many in the hobby.
I do still go up there to practice from time to time. I dont practice near as much as I used to. I may get in 1 night a week these days. Where before I was at T/A 3-4 days a week, and Hemet 2 days.
Im in, if we can get some others to pick a weekend, we can hit up T/A for some good racing action. I know I can round up a group to go.

Oh, I forgot to mention above that TA also races electric 1/10th scale, slashes, and 1/8th scale electric so if anyone in the area is looking to race with a great group of guys, then TA is the ticket. If anyone is planning on coming to the track to try it out or to race please feel free to post here, as I and I am sure others are more than willing to help anyone with there setup, and tuning. So please Come to Thunder Alley.

Awesome man, TA is a fantastic track. The electric 1/8th scale buggies are hit and miss. We typically get a group that comes down and race them. As for tires the bowfighter setup works well for 1/8th scale buggy, as for 1/10th scale holeshots work fantastic. I run the HB blocks up front, and khaos in the rear on my D8 and it works phenomenal. Come on down and we will give you a hand. What car are you running?

Those will work great at TA. Come on down for some practice and if you want to race and there isn't enough 1/8th scale electrics we will throw you in with the nitros. This is why I started this thread as I simply want to bring new faces to TA, in order to expand the RC community there and to meet new people.
