We do not have a website.
The first post is accurate. We have open track nights on Tuesdays and racing on Fridays. This will change September 1st.
The about section on facebook shows the times correct for me.
Call or text me if you have questions 573-631-1941.

Hi. Have not raced RC in a decade...used to race at Collinsville in the early 2000's, Shiloh Eagles in the 90's, and Galatia/Albion before that.
Was thinking of getting back into it. Looking at the classes in the first post, would be looking to race in either "Sportsman 4wd Buggy" or "1/8th Sportsman Electric".
Before investing in the kits, is there typically a better turnout for one or the other of those 2 classes? What would be a good kit for either? Raced AE (RC10/RC8) and Kyosho (Inferno/Lazer) in the past.
Any help for an old timer would be much appreciated!

4wd drive would be the big class. Xray has the best but more expensive buggy. AE is coming out with a new one. I'd start there. 2wd mod is the biggest class.
What's your name. I raced at shiloh

My name is Paul, and I remember seeing you at Shiloh. Those pan cars were fun.
Good to hear 4wd Sportsman would be a good class. I do have a Kyosho ZX5 that I could dust off....but the Xray XB4 looks great. Any motor/esc recommendations for sportsman? I just looked, and my ZX5 has a tekin R1Pro/537 combo...guess that is pretty dated today.

Stopped by the track Tuesday during practice to check it out. Really looks great, and nice meeting several of the folks there. Look forward to coming out once I get my car built.

Any of this could change or be adjusted but that is the plan for now. The region 8 race is set in stone.
