Both my trucks are up and running, but one track I can't go to because the track hasn't been maintained yet this year, and they are running indoor races today and don't want my radio interference. Another track is muddy with huge puddles, and the last option isn't finished yet, as it's still a work in progress. Driving back and forth on the road in front of my house is getting not only boring, it's going to cost me too much for tires to keep running asphalt.

I found a gravel lot, with some small dirt mounds, but I can't hold enough traction on the gravel to maintain enough control to get to the jump. The local parks are swarming with kids. My dad has 39 acres up north, of which about a third of it is field, but I don't have the equipment to clear it out and make a track.

With the almost 2 inches of rain, plus 6 inches of snow we got on Thursday, there's really not much for options. This sucks.
 
Move down south, plenty of places to run all year!:p:
 
At least you have local tracks. Damn if I ever get the time I'm going to make my own out in the back 40, but it's tough to get time. I know, 980 posts since november '09. I ALWAYS have time for RCNT!! :bowtothercnt:
