Cool Elecrtic offroad in Melb dying ?

Have been racing at (Melb) Knox electric offroad for six months, new to offroad & lovit but can't understand why so few people race there, track has been there for years & all the people there are good & helpful, Is offroad in Melb dying a slow death? On cup/shield events have seen up to thirty people race, on a club day if the guys from Keilor did not trek down there would be only five/six local diehards turn up, any feedback or ideas from your local clubs would be a great help, from what I have seen around this track is fast has big jumps & well prepared, this is my view & opinion , luke.

if what ur saying is right, then its a sad thing, cos knox has the raddest track going, the nats there was probably the best meeting ive ever been to, but off road fluctuates, we're getting some good new rookies coming up at castle hill, and maitland has a huge number of rookies, cos the local hobby store backs them, thats my only advise, is to try and work hard to get the close hobby stores to promote u, by leaving them flyers about the track etc, cya
