LOL Darren, you will be challenged.........:rof Yeah, ok, it's getting deep in here:willy
Yes, Wes Welker may still not know his own name:willy

Hey Mark, bring everything and that way if you feel like racing something, you'll have it. If you bring that certain red tuber, how ironic would that be??? LOL

I don't have enough room in my car for everything, but I'll bring a few ... I'd bring a certain red tuber, but it may very well still be naked ... lol.

Hey Digger I think it'd be cool to mix the track up a little with how well the turnout is shaping up to be. The track with the bridge was amazing and I think something creative along those lines would be really cool to get all the newcomers hooked on rc alley. Maybe incorperate the kicker jumps you guys use for trials into the track to get a little more of the 3rd dimension of offroad in there. I think a track with more variety would be a great idea as long as it were still easy to drive for the novice classes. I really liked the turn you had at the last even with the little bumps, it's stuff like that that makes going fast challenging but doesnt make it any harder to get around.

amen to that - we need to pitch the trucks up in the air a little. im sure some of you can remember the summer monster jam (mj7?) where we used the green mountain faces as a kicker and i thought it was a blast. and the 4wd trucks handled it fine. ive run over those grey kickers with almost any vehicle imaginable (including my wild ceptor!) and the way the ramps are constructed, the angle makes the truck very easy to control in the air.

the bridge was a blast as well - id love to see it make a return.

Yeah, I agree, adding something new would be a nice touch. If the bridge were to return, I'd like to see it used in a more controlled area of the track. Meaning an area where less speed is involved leading into it.

awe come on mike - we need to be able to clear that thing consistantly with clods!

if i was in charge of track design, i'd be racing over the mountain, but thats just me haha. like those jumps they do at the rc x-games ;)

Yeah, and if you were in charge of track design, nobody would finish the race:willy

When we used the bridge, there was a ton of carnage. I broke soooo much stuff at that event...... stuff you normally don't break:ack

Personally I think a big jump is overkill on parts and space, I'm just looking for variety in the track layout and smaller obstacles. And I'm looking for some jumps that will give the trucks a little air, make them have to use a little suspension instead of touring car style handling

Big announcement! TAMIYA is onboard once again to be our primary sponsor. There will be an awesome prize awaiting some lucky winner at this race:tmb It will be the first of its type we've ever given away.

Thank you Tamiya!!!

P.S. I directed the Tamiya rep who helped get this done, in record time, to this topic and they were impressed with what is here. You guys who replied who gave this topic the life that it has all contributed. I promise you that the fun you see in this topic is just the tip of the iceberg of what it's like to be a part of what we do.

A special thanks to Joe Anderson of Tamiya as well. Without him, I wouldn't be typing any of this right now. Thanks Joe!:tami
