The reason I chose to go the route of RC carpet racing is so I don’t have to clean up a car every time I play with it. It’s painful to clean up dirt after every use on outside tracks. Most of my other cars are nitro so that’s why I have to run them outside. I don’t really like to jump them because it seems easy to break them.
Actual racing will be a new challenge for me, so I’m a little excited. I have no race experience but that’s not going to stop me. If I can get a couple of practice runs in for a month or two I think I can catch on.
I’ll be running at the RC Pitstop & Raceway in Newton, KS, they have a pretty sweet setup. It’s entirely carpet with a pretty good straight to get the cars up to speed.
You know, honestly, for me, it’s not about the racing but more about just having something to do.
