Hey.

Here in SA there is no place for them to race, and they are 100% not welcome anymore at our track. We are not zoned correctly for nitro use. Its a residential area and the noise that they timewasters make for up to 30 mins at a time is unbearable. I would hate to be the person living across the road, in fact if i was there would be police attendance more often.

I am sorry, but 1/8th gas owners/tmaxx owners and the like should organise their own place to race and leave our 1/10th scale tracks alone. All of our clubs have spent/spend alot of money to build these tracks, and over and over again these ppl who don't give a ****, ruin it for all of us. I spend about 5-6 hours of my time every week cleaning up after these ppl, by myself. We have had them rock up while a few of us were working, and sure enough as soon as we said they should come and help us clean up, they all pissed off quick smart! Thats not fair. Why should we rebuild our tracks, so these ppl can destroy it. More so when they have been told they are not meant to be there because of the noise/damage/accident risks.

From now on, if i see any gas powered vehicle at our track ( Mitchell Park, sdmmc ) i will call the police followed by a council complaint.

Anyways sorry for the rant.

Glenn
