I tried very hard to enjoy my time there, but finally gave up and went home. If you like carpet, this would be a great track for you and the hobby shop is excellent.
Yeah, I understood that since you were clear from the beginning and careful to leave out names. It was probably my mistake to mention names as well.

Your explanation is much appreciated; since getting back into RC, I've only been on carpet, so I was just asking to understand the differences.

I myself have a lot of fun on carpet, but everyone has different opinions which I respect.

All that aside, I think everyone knows TQ is a top notch facility. Out of all the tracks I've been to, Sean seems to have everything well-balanced. The race events are organized, great parts support, prices are competitive, inventory is always accurate, and sean's a nice guy and great racer on top of all that. In an environment where we've just lost 2 tracks in just as many weeks, I personally appreciate his effort and having somewhere to play with our toys
