Like cr said-both tracks offer a good time. I remember G's last year being the lowest traction track I ran on so it was challenging. Drums is a 1/8 course-big n fun. Since I'll be east this weekend, I may try to hit hobby hut on Sunday for the first time this year

I ran at both tracks this year and they have been a great experience...

Load the vehicles up and experience new tracks, see how other tracks are run, meet new faces, and spread the word about your home track...

Nice trophy race at McCullough's this Saturday...2 hour drive but worth every mile...If you want to race against the best in the western Pa and Ohio area...go this Saturday and see for yourself...great run program, a lot of talent and also a challenging track layout

Don't be afraid...put it down and run it...the way to be a better driver/racer is to travel to other tracks and learn...





I agree,being that I just started racing last August I am just now getting around to seeing new places and new faces and its awesome!!!!had a great time at Lostcreek and cant wait to see McCulloughs track and G's and a few others in surrounding area.

In addition to...

I am not saying...do not support the local track...off weeks and off days, go and race at another track and you will see drastic improvements in your driving skills and set-up skills...

This statement is a general statement and not towards any one person...

It's a win win situation for everyone. Something that works and a shorter, non-lethal antenna.

Electric problems are mostly "user error". Haas is the one that burned up 2 speeders, but he is only 23. So his mind is so cluttered with thoughts of beer parties and young chicks that I'm not even sure he knows what an ESC is. Roeder had battery problems with an inexpensive soft-case.....you get what you pay for. Brad had a multitude of problems, electric and nitro......I think it was just his turn in the barrel.

Roeder's wasn't really a problem.....the battery still works!
