My track in France
Hello from France,
I want to share with you the place where I race.
We are 200 in this club.
These movies were made during the fourth round of the 1/8 French championship, 9/10 june at Toulouse (south west of france, where the Airbus are built!!)
The track is 360m long and 5m large.
- 1/8 track record: 18"67
- 1/10 sedan: 20"20
Here's some pictures during the building...

Nice tracks !
Onroad tracks in the U.S. are so pathetic. Just couldn't resist.

Awesome!
You’re very fortunate.
Hey America, why don’t we have tracks like that over here?

Tracks in France
Is that all you got?
Don’t we live in the richest country in the world, or is that just the crap we have been brainwashed to believe all our lives?
Could it be that all of those other countries with outrageous tracks are more organized than us?
Someone’s to blame for not growing our sport, should we really keep supporting them?

Do you know how much it cost to build this track? Where did the money come from?
What are the club membership fees?
Cheers

What more do I need? 
No, I think the richest country in the world is Sweden.
That's not it either. You're not even close.
Blame? Why assign blame? It is what it is.
