No clue, Maybe its just a place in RC that isn't popular. We are mostly onroad/offroad/basher/crawling type over here.

I have only seen one or two guys into the oval track racing. My guess, that's the reason.
I live in a area where I have yet to see anybody else running any RCs.
I love the look of drag racing but I would look ridiculous out there racing myself.
Same way with oval, no clue where there is a track without having to drive to Boise.

we actually have quite a few around the central texas area, I also know it is very common in the north east and mid west..... we have an indoor oval called 4way in abilene that is a great track and we just built and opened an outdoor one in san angelo ....... sooo much fun and there are tons of classes, everything from street stock to mudboss, to higher end late modles ( like mine) to even unlimited sprints ......
