Yea, these are the better ones. But I feel could be improved by more lumps and bumps, and the pile going in the wrong direction to reduce grip.
I was directing my ire against black carpet tracks mostly.

If someone changed the clay to turf......I would just adjust to turf.
What annoys me is the constant fluctuations in classes and class structure. When I invest a good amount of $ into a platform, parts, tires, springs, batteries, gears, etc. I get annoyed when suddenly that has to be moth balled because someone decides to "change direction".......
Where I'm from, clay doesn't exist. We had dirt, and that closed, and we've had astro for the past 10 years, but that closed as well.
So now we only have 2 community run dirt tracks for all scales and another astro one for 10th scale.
There is one gigantic onroad circuit, also run with help from the local authorities I believe.
