I’m not sure how popular they were as I never saw one. Does anyone here have one?

I’ve never owned a track but I’ve seen many open and close. It all comes down to economics. Tracks don’t generate the income needed to survive especially with everyone buying online instead of at the hobby store. As for onroad racing goes, the cars are too fragile, fast and complex for your average ...

Never racing during the peak of rc.

My Samurai was probably never run (based on the condition of the car and ties) and the red plastic motor cover also looks like it has melted over time.

Any idea what happened to Rory or why he got rid of his cars?

Great pictures!

What are the names of the racers with their shirts off? I'd probably recognize some of their names but don't know them by looks.

It looks like a great car, unfortunately there aren't many 1/8th scale on-road tracks left in the US.

"I am asking $15,000 Obo. Cash tALks."

The owner has a better chance of picking up a supermodel in his Ferrari replica than getting someone to pay $15,000 for it.

I bet the Iron Duke engine screams like a 12 cylinder during 7,000 rpm up shifts.

My picks for future collectors-
Electronics - 1st generation smart phones, ipods & ipads
RC - 1st generation drones, Traxxas XO-1 & the Slash
Full Size Vehicles - Tesla cars

I assume there is only one...Bill Oxidean.
He is the rc boat racer, correct?

When off-road consisted of two classes (stock or modified).

They do not drug test on the ESS sprint tour. While some of the drivers race on the tour as a job, the majority of drivers do it for a hobby.

Stewart cleared of wrong doing.
K. Ward had drugs in his system.

I'm surprised Tony sat out this week. It's time he gets back into the game.
