2 Doinks within one race to cost the lead, 6:12, and 6:43. Sucks for you, and the truck rocked. Tom Ept, raced his race, consistent and persistant, thats what won.

True but it's all good i rather loose to a Tom Epting than to an kid in grade school. But it's a lesson learned and every one bobbles i've watch endless videos from factor dirvers and they all bobble. But i ran out of video for your race and had all ready put my laptop away...

Mark,

I went down to see the outdoor track today. It's insanely small! What is this? I thought it would be bigger than that. I don't even know if it is much bigger than the indoor track. I just want to know if it'll be the final size, or if it'll keep developing.

Awesome racing last night guys, congrats to all the winners.

We're gonna have some nice battles in 2wd for a while, with Raul and possibly Peter Steers joining the fun, it's gonna get even more interesting around RCHR very soon...

As for truck, I definitely need to catch up to Tom and Larry

See you guys Saturday.

It's bigger than the indoor track, also perfect for 10th scale electric racing. Cannot wait for the weather to break...

Okay, would you or anyone happen to know the dimensions? I heard something like 100 x 75, but it certainly didn't look like it. Maybe it's because there is no wall restricting it from the outside.

I think it's plenty big, 100x75-80 ft was the measurement said by John. The nice thing NO straightaway.

John b. Aka raceannouncer, killer job on the stand and track. Bummer it rained yesterday. There is always next week. Next trophy race is a BBQ.

Its big enough for the cars we race, without needing too much motor, or going so far out that you can't drive accurately.

Its about 100ft wide, about 75ft deep at the far left and about 50ft deep on the far right. Kinda a triangle shape.

How big would you expect a 1/10 electric off-road track to be?

No, I'm simply saying that 100 x 75 is a good sized track, but from where I was, it just seemed a bit smaller. Not trying to start anything here.
