Nitro Racing in PA (Harrisburgh - Philly)

[shadow21]

I stopped by the shop and was told they will be racing sometime in April. There is no definite date as of yet because they are moving there shop next door this week and next.
They carry Ofna, Kyosho, Hot Bodies, Team Associated, duratrax (i think), os engines, and i heard him say they will carry team losi when they move the store.
I think i will buy the Xray xb8r tomorrow. How does it run compared to some of the others you have seen?
Maybe we all can get together and race a few diferent places this year

Also Garlands in Shippensburg will be a new track this year

just buzzing through this thread & in case noone knows it but bumps & jumps is shut down indefinetly!! something about building permit violations.....
i ran there a few times this winter, to damn cold & way to small.
I did see that someone said something about Garlands. this is an awesome track. staurdays is the oval, sunday is offroad, atleast thats the sched. for now, not sure how the oval thing will pan out, seeing how newville runs on sat. as well. if the oval doesn't work out garland will run offroad sat & sun!!!
will post a link to garlands website & forum.http://garlandsrccarland.com/index.php?osCsid=f15ef86369fd390743f378ee9a7569b3
http://www.garlandsrccarland.com/forum/
there are pics of the track in the forum under banked clay oval & offroad track, checkem out. garland will race any type of vehicle as long as theres 3 to make up the class. from 1/18th all the way up to 1/5 & 1/6 scale.
let me tell you from personal experience you can really open up a buggy on this track, hell you should see Garland oprn up his 1/5th scale.

Chris from BnJ is TRING to get all the stuff together but the permit peeps were dragging their feet I believe.

Dont knock it, at least it was somewhere to run in the winter!!!!

And yes Ryan, VERY tight. Chris ran today, Pit Stop dodged some MAJOR rain today, not sure how!!!!!
