My Backyard Track

For the past few months I've been working on a small short course track for my SC10. Under our deck it has been all dirt since we moved in, so I decided to start there. It has actually worked really great and has been fun to race on and make too.  

My Workbench

Whether you have one car or more you always have to have a good workbench. Here's a little video of my area where I do repairs and display my trucks. One must-have is that everything is clean and neat so you can always find what you need.

Traxxas

If you,ve ever thought about getting a rc car then you most likely have heard of Traxxas("The fastest name in radio control"). They have got almost every kind of vehicle out there, from short course to on road racing. All of their cars are ready to run, which is great if your just getting into remote control racing. They also have great customer support and a full line of replacement parts ready for you. This is why my first two rc cars were from them and I have really enjoyed them so far. The website has got great information, pictures, videos, and more.

MC Hobbies



Here's the logo and number of my local short course track in Asheboro. They have races every now and then, and practice 7 days a week for $5. There is also a website that shows all of the race dates and other info.( http://www.mchobbies.com/#! ) It's a great track for any kind of racing and is kept in really good condition. The layout has changed a bit from this picture but it's about the same still, if not better. If you live anywhere near here you've got to come and check it out.

At The Track

This past weekend I went to my local track about, 30 minutes from my house. Its a great track thats very well maintained and only costs $5 to practice on each day. I've only been there a few times to practice and haven't raced there yet though. Here's a picture of it. The tracks called Zoo City Raceway and its in Asheboro N.C.
