You mean in 2 years when a v6 fwd malibu can crush your 3000gt
hey, if i buy the 3000GT, id come visit. then I can crush u with my rusty...
honesty super sick track. wish there were tracks like this in TN.
make one after you buy the 3000gt
Carpet is less maintenance than dirt and clay, but tire wear, and buying sets of tires are gonna be expensive.
 
That's near my house. I've been there a couple times.....to the hobby shop and ran on the outdoor dirt track once. The were constructing the indoor track last time I was there. Their little restaurant is pretty good.

Little restaurant!?!?
Too cool
I gotta go sometime

Pretty sure they race offroad tuesday nights. Get some dinner between my races. Too cool.

When we were at RC Underground, Back in July, Little Ceasers opened up on the other side of the shopping center so we would casually walk over there between Q1 and Q2 of racing night.
 
997 is awesome. I've bought plenty of stuff from them. Would love to take my SK Mod down there someday.
 
I'm packing things up and will be heading out to 997 within the next hour. Going to race the 12T Mudboss in tonight's Oval race.
 
@DavidB1126 here's a couple pics of the pic and track. I didn't get any video although there were plenty of times I wish I had. If you have a liverc subscription you can always go pull up previous race videos :)

Is there any updates to the dirt track? Might bring my dirt tires so i can run outdoor dirt and indoor carpet at the same time lol.
Ill be best indoors. Me like the AC. Plus I don't wanna get the carpet messed up with dirt rocks and stuff.

Planning on going upthere in the next few weeks.

And also @Smilinbri , if I do wanna stop by, PM me your address. I'm sure your not that far out from 997. Cause 2 hrs from here is a bit of a hike for sure.

Got to go up this weekend. Fully stocked shop. Had to text my uncle on what a huge Xray section they had lol. Nice and big onroad track. They use the onroad track section as a mixed track. Sometimes is a carpet oval. Sometimes mini z. They have a crawler and dirt track but didn't check that out. They have a mexican/american restaurant on the lower level. Building used to be a old school. Guessing a private school back in the 50s but now is a RC track. The offroad track is in a old gym and the pits are on the stage. They also re did the layout last night so I was one of the first people to run on the new layout. Great people in the shop. No one else today so I had the track to myself lol. Most likely because all the other people are outdoors racing. Cause its the season.

Ran the B74, Slash and Mini B. Love the wall ride and kinda like second floor of the track.

1hr and 40 minute drive for me from Baltimore. Not gonna be a "regular" track for me due to the extra 40 minute drive. (But, no tolls so gotta account that in) compared to my drive down to Gaithersburg for Mimi's.
