Even if you only bash and not race you owe it to yourself to get to the outdoor off road track.

The track is AWESOME. We've never run on anything like it. It's a totally different experience than Leisure's indoor track. The opportunity to be on FULL THROTTLE with an 1:8 scale for long periods of time is really cool. And as usual all the guys we ran with and met in the pits were really helpful and friendly.

We were there yesterday and practiced using the Mayhem and our electric T4 and B4's.

If you going to run electric use a mod motor and gear up. I tried a bunch of different tires and so far Bow Ties or newer Hole shots seemed to work the best. I'm also going back to try reptiles, gladiators and also want to get some Komodo's...for the buggy we had step pins.

On the back straight with the B4 and a 12 single I was able to pass some MT's and just be about 1 second behind 1:8 scales. With the buggy running alongside all the nitros if you take your time through all the tight curves you can keep ahead of most people on the track.

Man, that was fun!
