I saw earlier in this thread a link to www.fearfarm.com....but that website is currently down. Did the website change, or is it just dead? Seems like the track is still alive based on recent posting about it...

This one works for me:

http://www.fearfarmrcraceway.com/

They don't do hardly any kind of updates on the website from what I've seen.

get an ENGINE and not a motor.
oh yeah, a bottle of 30% and a starter box, too

Sounds good, but not for my college student budget... I'll still come out and have some fun though.

Kenny usually runs the electrics 10 minutes. They stop in the middle and the nitro continues

Fear Farm has loaner transponders, just ream a body post size hole in your body to clip it to. That's a nice perk of running there if you don't have your own transponder.

every track has done that. the cost is just rising to keep them maintained, eventually i bet FF goes away with loaned Transponders too. if you race its best to buy one. you can save a little dough and buy a mrt transonder they work fine with amb and only 80 bucks

Thanks to Bill Irwin for letting me have some fun with his HPI. The 1/5 track at Fear Farm is about to go in so I thought I would post this up. It will be cool to see what happens to the class now that Arizona will have a purpose built 1/5 track to race on.

+ YouTube Video
