It should be pretty fun. Track will be prepped and VHT'd so there will be plenty of traction.

Default Crystal Park woohoo!

Hey guys, I practiced there yesterday and my Xray was flying out there. The track has great traction and works great with electric cars. Actually Crystal Park is such a fun track (nice too, with green paint and red and white stiped corners) everyone is going to like it. It's almost like racing in Europe. I'm having so much fun there that I bought a Nitro car. Yup I said it, I'm going Nitro (part time that is). With all the help from Francis, Duy, Nelson, Alex, and Ron, I should be up to speed in no time...at least my car will be...now the driving is another story

Your electric sedan was fast and Your first drive with the nitro car was really impressive!

Dang it Francis, why did you have to say that. Now I'm gonna get hooked on Nitro. Bad enough I'm getting into 1/12th scale. Oh well, I'll have to work more overtime hours to keep up with the new toys Glad you Nitro guys have come in to electric racing to give us some competition. In return, I need to see what it's like on the Nitro end..

Nah , car is working pretty good!! I finally found a good setup, atleast it works good at CP not sure how it is going to be at other tracks. Also I finally found all the parts I needed to change my setup..It was really hard to find HB parts and I did not want to keep bugging the HB workers for parts..
