Where do people on here use there tank? and are they used on a regular basis or are the more static models that are modified etc but rarely used in anger?

It seems when I do a search for RC tanks in the UK most results are for the larger 1:6 scale are these the more popular scale to use on a regular basis?

Do any of the clubs etc in the UK use 1:16 scale tanks?
There are only so many times you can go round the garden even if you do add obstacles etc. and I dont really want to dig the garden up to create a proving ground!
