Default "Parking Lot Bashing" in the Miami/Ft.Lauderdale Area

Hi R/C Fans,
I was just wondering where everyone is taking their cars to run at beside tracks.If you know of a good area for parking lot bashing,please post some places up around Miami/Ft.Lauderdale.And if anyone wants to get together and bash a parking lot,please post some ideas.I wouldn't mind meeting up with a few people to run our cars.

-Tim

What about Aventura Mall,has anyone ever ran their car there?
The parking lots there look smooth and spacious.
And there's a hobby shop down the street.

That's one thing about Florida,we have R/C tracks all over.
I'm just trying to find the ones that never see the tracks but have R/C cars to run.I go to the LHS all the time and see alot of cars and buggys there getting repaired,but never see these cars at the tracks.They have to be running them somewhere??Well thanks for the input.I'm just going to keep this thread alive for the people who bash and might come across it.

the track is located in the cutler ridge area, you can get there easy by the turnpike south. Its a nice size off-road track 1/8 buggy and truggy is pretty much everyone has but you can take whatever offroad car you have gas or electric im sure they wont turn you away.

maybe bashing in the parking lots is the why you see them getting repaired all the time at the hobby shop.

Everytime I take the car out,something always needs to be replaced or repaired.

I like to do top speed runs,so I'm always changing or adding something to the car.Different engines,bigger pinion gears,smaller spurs,you know the deal.
I run a 1/8 scale buggy-based onroad car that I've gotten it to do almost 70mph,not bad..
