Default Fast & Fun RC Raceway open in Vernon CT

Hi, We just opened a new RC Track with a RC Hobby shop called Fast & Fun RC Rcaeway in Vernon CT at 458 Talcottville Road on Rte 83. We have a 5,000 square foot facility with plenty of pit space. We have a fully airconditioned track so it is beautiful inside while we race.

Friday Nights racing starts at 7:00pm Indoor trucks over carpeted jumps.

Sunday Oval Racing 9:am -3:00pm

We are looking to build a roack crawling track also. If anyone is interest please call the shop 860-875-1305

Wed nites is looking like a oval night as well.

Saturdays is open truck practicing for now.

Hope to see you soon
JIM

Default Awesome store/ track

I drive a slash 4x4 ultimate and i have raced with the other trucks every friday night since Fast and Fun opened. In the past two races I have had more fun driving my truck than i did in all the times i had driven it since i got it which was almost a year ago, i look forward to continuing to go and race. The people are friendly, the prices are very reasonable, the selection is growing, and the building is very cool.

Default Just getting started

We are just getting started with more and more people showing every week. We have been running fun racing with a "run what you brung" mentality so far. Everybody seems to be enjoying it. We have about 3 E-Revo's running so far.

We haven't set any battery or motor rules yet because like I say, we haven't had large enough numbers. But we are growing quickly and we will have something up soon. Come in and talk with me, I would live to hear your suggestions.

Default New Lap Counter Has arrived

Our new AMB lap counter has arrived and will be ready for Next Fridays Racing! Come in and check out our air conditioned facility. We have plenty of pit space and the place is very clean. Food is just two doors down at Peoples Choice Pizza. The restrooms are handicap accessible and are kept very clean also.

We have a great mixture of young and experienced racers who have a great attitude. The racing has been very close so far.

The track is a 35 feet wide by sixty feet long which enables us to have a 4 lane wide track set up. We feature two large jumps along with many small jumps to make a competive race course that takes skill and is fun.

Hope to see you there!
