Default Who Is Racing This Year

We have been working toward building a track for a while, and it's almost ready. Just curious on who the real racers are around here in 1/5 scale off-road. Wanted to post a video and a few pics from our Test this past weekend. It was awesome to spend part of Easter Sunday enjoying what we love to do. I'm looking forward to meeting more people this year at some tracks & other cool gathering spots.

Here is a cool 3 shot progression. The tire explosion in a wheely at the end was witnessed by 2 guys closer than I was.

First ever that I know of in Georgia 1/5 off road race is this weekend. I was sure hoping to be there but with the way work is going unfortunately I will not be.[][] [:@]Since being off work so much I did take my PT out of my 1/8 buggy and install it in my HPI Baja 5B SS. May be next month if work picks up.

Sounds great. We are looking to find people to come & make a bigger group of racers. Things are coming along good & we plan to soon have a first rate dedicated 1/5 scale track. Any other people in the area give us a reply & the group can continue to grow.
