I thought you guys might be interested in seeing some of the Vintage Rally cars, and RallyCross cars that race at my track Blades International Raceway. They were all built and detailed by me, except for the Alfa Romeo my Dad detailed. Tell me what you think.

I completed my first Vintage Rally Car for the Vintage Rally series I run. A Vintage RC10 with a RC10DS conversion applied to it, a custom shortened carbon fiber chassis and a Tamiya 30th anniversary Porsche 934 body. I very happy with the results.

I recently acquired an old car that the seller says it used to race at this track in the 90's. Is there any of you out there that has any information, photos or articles about that place? It sounded like a pretty neat track from what I heard.

I don't know about the car but someone did a good job on the Mark Martin body. Last time I was at a Nascar race (a long time ago), he was still using that color scheme.

Yep, I may add some small sponsor decals behind front wheel arches and some...

Doubt there are many members near here, but what the hell… :D

They’re having a big off road trophy race today. They had a 3 hour enduro short course race(the last one was 4 hours)at noon and then started all other regular racing at 3:30 or so....

I haven't been up to REO in about a year. I use to race oval there weekly. They shut down for a long time due to a major bridge being worked on that cut off a lot of their race crowd. I've been checking out the forum again lately though and it seems...

Matthew Stevens is the proprietor of Extreme Hobby Shop in Spring Hill, TN. When he had the urge to build a track to compliment the store, he enlisted my help. We came up with an indoor carpet off-road racing facility. Middle TN was rather anemic as...

I've never raced carpet either but seems to me with how smooth and hard packed modern dirt tracks are might as well go carpet and be cleaner, looks like a great track. My first thought was big gap for vintage as well but for modern car no big deal....

Talked to Mitch last night. He is the guy going in with Glenn on the small engine shop. Glenn is not closing the track. He has already closed the hobby shop part. The only things he will carry is our oval stuff.
