During the week all RC'ing is done at my house. We have a vacant lot next door that is great for flying my heli's and even driving my cars.

Sometimes on the weekends me and my dad will go to the park or somewhere to drive our trucks but here lately we've been doing heli's because of the cars keep breaking [:@]

For mt's it is a gravel and shale pit where they removed alot of material and left jumps all over the place. For on-road I have a "huge" hospital that just layed fresh blacktop parking lots that are empty most of the time. Then there is always the race track, love that place too.

For me, it depends on which RC it is and my mood.

When I raced trucks, It was Vicksburg R/C Off-Road Raceway in (duh) Vicksburg, MI which happens to be in the backyard of the owners of Fantom Racing's parents house, a nice multi-leveled course.
For my boats, when practicing or playing, I have 3 places within 2 miles of my house to run at. When racing though it's a pond at a conservation club in Saginaw. There's nothing special about the place itself but the club knows how to put on a race and a lot of great people show up there.
It does get a little scary when they are target shooting off turn one though, one reason why I set up down towards turn six.
BTW, that's where my sig came from. I always end up parked down in that area at whatever race that I go to. We seem to have more of a fun crowd there.

any big space where we can pop out the lawn chairs, down a few brews (legally drinking and driving, so there!) and run into each other
