More RC tracks in Florida!
« on: October 07, 2016, 11:21:00 »
I worked at the track when I was younger, in IL. I raced for Team Associated and futaba. Coming to FL I assumed it would be Tracks galore, but we have nothing! I'm not sure why.. is RC (1/10 scale, 1/8th) really just not popular anymore?

I get it is expensive. However it is great for adults and kids to learn about engineering, teamwork and other life skills.

Anyone race local to pinellas county? Or Hillsborough?

Thanks All!

I remember a couple tracks in Tampa area, but I think they are both closed now. One was in Riverview, on 31 near the VFW hall. The other was in Hudson on 19... that one might still be there, but I haven't been up that way much to see.
