Default Minnesota Virtual R/C On & Off Road Racing

Hey all,

A group of local fellas have starting doing some online racing thru the Virtual RC (VRC Pro) simulator, now that they've released the off-road expansion pack. We're hoping even more MN guys will join up for some fun virtual racin'!

www.vrcworld.com or www.vrcpro.com/

We've got a MN VRC'ers club going on the VRC site as well...

http://www.vrcworld.com/clubs/club.aspx?club=314

Here's an online review of the software from rcsoup.com...

http://www.rcsoup.com/2012/09/vrc-pro-hands-on-review-and-giveaway/#.UE92cX7uU8Q.facebook

We'll use this thread to post upcoming online race times, club challenges, setup tips, general questions, etc, anything related to the simulator.


Thanks!

Amain has them.

If I can figure out my latency issue I'll definitely try and join you guys soon. Been busy with getting the on-road stuff in check and school/work.

Dang! I misread the title, I thought it was Vintage R/C On & Offroad Racing. I was going to get my Tamiya TA02, Kyosho F1, Corally SP12G2, Yokomo Super Dogfighter and RC10 Team Kit ready for some old school racing

This video, although cheesy, explains the memberships pretty well...

This page on the VRC site goes into detail on the differences...

I think the sim is outstanding, and it's only going to get better as more classes and tracks are released, and more people subscribe and join up for online racing.

I just got the new Mike's layout this morning. That track is so much more fun than the original!
