Anyone have a 1/5 scale car??

Anyone into these big cars?? They look like they are fun to drive, but I'm looking for somewhere to run them. Any links would be great, for either manufacturers, or tracks. Thanks, Rob

I dont think 1/5 has really taken off here in the states, mabye because the cost,and trying to compete with 1/10 and 1/8 scales, I have never seen any 1/5 scales around our forum at all, must be a secret breed of their own out there some where!

Personally, I love 1/5 scale because of the realism and sound...

oh...if you are in the Pacific Northwest, you should check out Time Zone raceway during one of the scheculed races:

http://www.timezoneracing.com

It's located on a residential property, so please only go there during a scheduled race.

Here's my car during the last race there:
