Maybe its the tracks of the "off road" scene thats the problem. Wheres the Loam, the Deep dust, the mud? What's next ashphalt tracks?

See, I completely agree.... I started racing Off Road in the 80's and we ran knobby tires or step pins.... I haven't set car on my local off road track in 2 years because I felt it was pretty much on road with jumps...

Maybe it's time to go back to racing on dirt, not hard packed clay that resembles concrete. It's funny that a little dirt on top of the concrete would cause a concern.

I'm actually tired of the On Road BS and looking to come back to Off Road but I see with the exception of having to carry a tire truer it's the same nonsense. Well, at least there's not some great new car comming out every week that everyone needs to have....
