Race night at coworkers house
Race night at coworkers house
We had about 8 trucks racing, this is a backyard track that my coworkers brother built. We had some Losi, Traxxas, Arrma, and a few Tekno.
Y'know, I thought "real track, real trucks."
Then noticed how big the building was and my brain went a bit wonky until I realized "real track, real rc trucks."
Looks fun though!
Edit: also, didn't see where it was posted 🙃
Lol, he's done a great job making the track look very legit
That looks awesome! Do you have any photos of the whole track? Or clips of you guys racing?
that's what it looked like before the weed killer and fence drag right after we finished building it. Unfortunately I don't have any videos, the host has an iPhone and I have an android so when he sent them to me they came through as potato quality to the point where it's not even worth watching.It's a big oval/rectangle mostly, with an inner section we can add if we want to. Sometimes we have the whole race go through the inner, or sometimes we require a "joker lap" like rallycross
Awesome private track, looks like a ton of fun
Out of curiosity how does he stop anything growing in the track?
A combination of things, the first being weed and grass killer. The second, he's got this rig with his riding lawnmower where he has a 4ft section of chain link fence. He weights the section of fence down with bricks, and then just keeps dragging it around the track using the lawnmower. That actually served multiple purposes - it turns over the dirt a little, pulls up the smaller grass blades that escaped the killer, flattens out most of the bumps, and kicks up any rocks so they are easy to find and toss aside.
