Default RE: RC Sled Pulling

well this is the second time i am typing this so it will be much shorter this time. We built the track out of wood with sand textured paint to give a gritty surface that is very long wearing that requires almost no maintenance. In south florida we have no clay so that option is out, and i wouldnt have built it with it anyways. That gets extreamly messy and requires ALOT of prep time between rounds, and is horible to pull on when it is wet. We pull at night and for over half of the year it rains every night at 4:30pm. That would kill almost all our pulling time. That is the reason the track is built off the ground. We have it hindges on the back side so we can lower the front and let the water run right off. 5 minutes with the leaf blower and we are ready to pull .

I would love to see what a pan car would do on our track....Feel free to con down and get hooked up.....Oh you will have to put a hitch on it though.
