I am afraid to collect all my RC together to take a pic.  I have 4 1/32 scale RC, 2 Tyco RC heli, a HPI stadium chasis that I don't use anymore, a Frontier RC, a track driven TYCO, the Revo, the RC18T/MT.

I am still waiting on the guy to call me back about the Axial 1/10.  If he doesn't call me back, I might get a slash or Rustler brushless (70+ MPH ))

Hey Spencer, where do you run your RC's at? Namely the Revo... I'm trying to find some place in the OC/Irvine are that I can run the Slash/Slayer and not get hassled. Dirt would be great, but I don't know the are well enough to know where I can take them.

I run it on my street or at the park near my house on saturday and sunday. There use to be an electric RC dirt track in HB, but they shut down.  

The closest Nitro track is in Ontario(sp?)
Ultimate Hobbie in oc use to hold races before they moved, but the word is the new landlord did not like they taking all the parking away.

I will ask around next time I am in the shop.  Which is soon, I am itching for another rig.

Lets vote.

Slash or VXL Rustler?

My mini WHIPS



I don't know Arthur, the crawler is pretty fun, I will let you try it if you want.  I am sure you will get hooked.

Losi is selling a smaller version of the AX-10, I checked it out it's pretty cool

Jason, I confirmed the new track in OC is what I posed above.

So I think I pissed off my Slayer by running on the beach... one of the clutches or the OWB is seized up. It doesn't like to roll backwards and when I hit the starter it drives forward... whatever, I'll get it cleaned out.
