It looks like the website disappeared sometime after August 2013.

Hello Ken,

Website was up but inactive up until last couple of months. Lurked there for a while. Even registered last summer. No response. Think it was a spin-off from a Houston fly-guys website. Never gained much traction locally. RC Files is the local go-to site these days.

I've noticed a movement in favor of social media sites over websites of late. Personally, I prefer a website, but then I'm an old dinosaur when it comes to comms. Linking to social sites with a I-phone or whatever is the popular and accepted thing to do for folks these days.

New to the Houston and Texas r/c scene, you are? If so, welcome. Looking for a place to light? There's good traffic here, but sometimes misses the local level nitty-gritty. RC Files and rctech provide a good balance of info for my needs. Good luck.

I would suggest a google calendar an map that show track locations, race info, and race dates. It's free to setup but takes some time. That way, all racers can see what's going on on a place instead of surfing threads. I set one up for TN/KY so steal my example if you like.

A map exists containing most of the Texas tracks, but there's no central calendar (see link below). Like Arnie posted above, there isn't much Texas traffic here on RCTech. We're all mostly on RCFiles.

My bad. Rc files looks good and your google map is up. Just making a suggestion to a previous poster.

It's all good! I would double post here and on RCFiles every now and again, but that gets old.

Happy Thanksgiving, y'all!

I was out at 3 palms riding motorcycles yesterday and stopped in to look at the RC track, looks pretty good. 2 different tracks with platforms for both.

I am new to the KATY/HOUSTON area. Moved down here from Michigan in May for a new job. Looking for someplace close to this area. Don't really like driving 2 or more hours to race.......plus don't know any racers in the area. So any help to "feed my need for dirt" would be greatly appreciated.....
