Oh I had no idea. Just saw pictures and a website. Well that sucks, now I remember why I got out of the hobby 10yrs ago. Only legit racing seems to be electric and oval…
What is this track behind bensons, private owned deal? Nitro MT friendly? I’m debating on selling the revo to get into electric, if there was only an actual off road track. Oval does nothing for me.

There are a few kits out there to make the N Revo an E Revo. Might be your best option.
The Axial Exo Terra Buggy RTR is $299 at Tower now, so tempted! If anyone is going to buy something through Towerhobbies I have codes that give decent discounts. If you subscribe to their email, you get better deal codes than the advertised ones.

I was thinking something that is raced locally. Is there anything besides oval around here?

Did a lot of research while stopping at every local shop looking for a pull start.
Victory lap is shut down
Competition hobby only has oval, electric only
Science and hobby outdoor little track is gone, only have indoor oval/carpet
Track behind bensons is offroad however couldn’t get a straight answer but seems to be only electric now.

I had a radio shack Golden Arrow buggy and a tamiya super hornet when I was a kid. I dunno much about RC cars at all but my parents were pissed when I dug an RC track around the perimeter of their garden lol.

Like suzukijake said its catbox thats behind bensons. They have a real good turnout on wed nights, they also run most sundays. It seems like there a lot of 2wd and 4wd SCT’s and a few 2wd buggys but i think 4wd buggys are starting to come around. They update their facebook page quite a bit on whether they are racing on certain days. I have a E-Revo with a novak brushless set up on 4s right now and a rustler vxl but would like to get a 4wd buggy.

I really want one of the short course trucks. They look crazily fun.
