Are you the one who called and ask if you can run outside. and I said no because the outside track is tore up. Inside may be a little tight for your baja but you can sure try if you like.

yes, i was the one who had called.if we can try to run inside that would be great. my friend and i are not new to the r/c world, and are not careless with our toys. if there is one day that works out best for you guys to try and see how it works out, let me know. we would love to come out and have fun. its about an hour and 15 min from where we live, but it would be worth it to come out.

As of the moment its listed as open practice. Anyone is welcome to run according to the website. If thats not so then LHR should update the site. Give them a call to verify the schedule, i'm just going by whats listed on the website.

Take from the website. If there has been a change it wasn't announced on the website which is what I check whenever I plan on going to an open practice. Green, call LHR to make sure the schedule is correct.
