i talk to North East today on the phone.they started a petition to get a track built in this area.

Lt.Doomsday if you go there tell me how you like the track, I went there to check it out but have never done anything there.

PS: I think they have a hobby shop there entirely devoted to r/c racing, I havent ever been in there so tell me if its any good.

I go to the Mushroom Bowl in Kennet Square.They stock a lot of parts but mostly onroad.For offroad they have mostly Traxxis,Team Associated,And Team Losi.They only have one indoor track and two outdoor tracks.Here is there website:

Highflyin have you ever used/ seen a race there, do you think it would be worth going to see again?

because I was thinking of going to see one and wanted to know if it would be worth going. Thanks

Good News:
Looks like the guy at northeast hobby in Hazleton,PA is building a track once it gets warm out.it's gonna be a dirt oval and maybe a tarmac track for you on-road R/C guys.

 

[highflyin]

sbb4us: I have seen a few races there and they were good.I have never seen a race anywhere else so i have nothing to compar them to.Right know they run indoors on saterday.It starts at 6:00.It is ovalone weekend and then onroad coarse the next.I bought a Carpet Knife just to race there.

 

[sbb4us]

Do you have any idea when the outdoors races are because last time i checked the website it just said no event on every day I looked at.

 

[Malakai3]

if there is anyone in the mechanicsburg, harrisburg, or lemoyne area, there is a track in lemoyne, i Kranzels R/C raceway and hobbies. it's a nice place to shop, except they're a little expensive, but they ned to make money too right?

 

[highflyin]

The outdoor races will start in a mounth or 2.They will be saterday around six.

 

[sbb4us]

Cool, thanks I will have to go check one out sometime.

I just checked the website and there arent any events planed yet
do you know when the first outdoor race is.
