I have not been able to get hardly any wheel time for months now. Racing only once every 2 weeks sucks. Thats if I am lucky.
What set up are you using now?

Nothing too impressive, I was saving up to build a rc8t but while surfing ebay last night I found a brand new rc8t rs rtr for 300 bucks. I could not resist. Plan on upgrading to a 2.4ghtz radiot and pick up a starter box this week.

Gotta start somewhere!

Interested in a DX3S? I upgraded to Airtronics so I'm selling the Spektrum. $150 for it and 2 receivers. $175 for it and 3 receivers.

I would but I have a 125 gift card to hrizon hobbies, I think I am going to order the new dx3c. Its not as fancy but it gets the job done. Thx for the offer though! If you come across a good starter box hit me up.

Man FF is going to blow up once the big track and the 5th scale track are done. I remember the days of 150+ on a club night with 2-3 heats of each class including Truggy. You guys remember the truggy class right?! I can see those days coming back soon enough. Gonna be some great times racing with a packed house every weekend. I really hope we see the return of some missing friends also. This may be just what they needed to get their grooves back on. Way to Go Kenny and the crew at FF for giving us back what we once had.

When was that? I've been racing in Arizona since 2005 and the only track I can remember ever getting to 100 entries for a club race was SRS. None of the nitro tracks (including the nitro pit back in the hayday of nitro racing) ever hit 100 club racers. There have been series races that creep up on the 150 mark, but never a club race that I know of.

I hear stories of SRS "back in the day" getting 20 heats for club racing but that was before I moved out here.

The location of Fear Farm is really rare for an RC track. I talk to a lot of people from all over AZ at my work and for the first time EVER, I have random people asking me about RC racing because they see the lights and track driving down the freeway. The amount of new racers we're going to see at fear farm could really get crazy with that kind of exposure.
