RC10Talk - The Net's Largest Vintage R/C Community

hey just wondering if theres anyone out here arond the eastern nc area (around camp lejune) who would want to start meeting and bashing on weekends me and a few friends want to start a local club or group to get together and have fun...

Only 3 or 4 of us in NC that i know of and im only down that way once a month.DON

well this isnt what i was hoping for lol but don if you ever want to bash around when ur in the area let me know and we can meet up or something

Do you have a local parks building or community center? You may want to throw up a flyer with some info if you want to get a group going. It's amazing to me how many people I see (or hear) running r/c and when I stop to talk to them they never thought anyone else nearby had one... and they typically don't realize there are tracks nearby.
Make sure you mention how you want it to be... family-friendly or not, as some guys I've met like to get together, drink beer and see how many times a T-Maxx can cartwheel at high speed before it disintegrates. If that's what you're into, then great... but I would prefer something a little more laid back that kids could show up to as well. Just my thoughts.
Good luck!

yes civilguy i agree i want it family friendly i love to see a kid bashing/racing a vintage tamiya this is how i fell in love with the sport when i was younger and thats a great idea thank you i will try it out there really arent any tracks or convention centers i can use but lots of parking lots and empty gravel lots

I'm next to Bragg-not really any other action here other than Greensboro

thats not to far hit me up on here if you ever want to bash around

Wed and Sat 2wd buggy @ Greensboro

Charlie -

Are you talking about the "new" track in Greensboro? I'd seen a little about it, have people been showing up with 2wd buggies? Seems like everywhere I know about they only want to run 1/8, and SC trucks. Too much skill involved in wheeling narrow 2wd buggies! (I only really like buggy - 2 or 4WD.. can you tell!?)

How long does it take to get there, are they on the west end of the city?

One nearest me is in Goldsboro its called rosewood about a mile off 70 east go to train track turn right just at track go down road be on the right race on saturdays.Hobby store and three tracks,one indoor carpet and two paved tracks,oval and road course.Only seen 10 to 15 guys with sons there racing.Some used rc stuff for sale sometimes,Got tamiya semi trucks and traiers and alot the new rcs and planes and choppers.
The other i know about is in Wilson a small banked oval race every other saturday starts at 10 am called the antique barn think got webpage. Just let me know guys hell i drive all over now lol.Theres a group i herd about but aint found or met them,their around New Bern some where.Don

if u find more about the group in new bern please let me know
