Yep, you could say that. I too am in Willow Grove. Small world.

Do you race anywhere? I have a nephew and a niece, I'd love to get them involved.

no, not really...nothing really around in the area. There was Horsham RC for a very brief period of time, which was an indoor carpet layout, and really nice too, but I can say that I've never really 'raced' at a real track. When I lived in NJ way back when, I had a dirt oval type of track at my parents house. Had my brothers and 3-4 other guys that would have racing sessions which was fun, but nothing organized.
there is a place in easton I think, trains and lanes or something I've been wanting to check out, just never had time. Once the boys get older, I think I want to get them set up with some track time, if they are interested.
otherwise, we just run them around in the yard and street.

I've been using Hobby Hut, as my lhs. They have a track, but I haven't had a chance to check it out. It's a 30 min. drive, up the turnpike. Audubon, Pa. They are friendly and knowledgeable, even with this vintage stuff. It's right off the Valley Forge exit. They have a website, you'll be able to find out the details, just thought I'd bring it to your attention.

It's not raining. I feel as if I want to take a short video, so you guys can see, and hear my "goldie" move. I still don't have a working computer. Is it as simple as posting the YouTube link in between the YouTube "tags" that I see, on here?
