Review: RCP tracks kick ass!
Well, we broke down and bought an RCP track... two actually.
Here's some shots of our layout, which uses 2 large L tracks.
It took a bit of getting used to, but just a bit... the surface is
fucking incredible to drive on. We're using the slick side and
there's too much grip (nice problem to have for a change).
The ONLY thing that's a little hard to get used to so far is the
grippy side rails. It really just means we gotta get our drivin'
skills together, but we may figure out a material that will allow
the cars to slide off the sides a bit more... only a minor problem
actually and we already are getting used to it... we both agree
it was money WAY well spent.


Here's the cars we drove today... MR-01s that are basically
stock other than bearings, diffs and x-speed motors... gettin'
our Initial D style on...

We were actually talking about you during the first hour of driving or so, Payaso... "Payaso would be kicking our asses right now", we said. But, now that we got the hang of it... bring it, bitch! Seriously, it would rule if some pimps were in the Portland area some day for some racing.
We bought it from Tiny's store... mini-zracer.com. It cost about as much as an fully tricked out MR-02 and it's worth every penny. The track makes my iWaiver seem 10 times better, and the MR-02 is fucking insane. Yeah, the same money spent on hop-ups wouldn't have done nearly as much for the way the cars drive.

This track rocks! It takes us around 8 minutes to set-up or take-down the track into 3x2 segments and stack them against the wall. Takes up about as much room as a twin matress when stacked against the wall.
The cars drive sooo nice on it. The best thing is the consistency. Racing on the floor, your tire situation changed by the lap, literally. On the RCP, the cars drive the same every time.

Well I heard that you just liked to get spanked
Thats what bird said anyway
Bird is also waiting on hogs update on the game he is spittin' to the 18yo Sewickley honey... Dude needs a little rich girl to take care of him lol... "Baby... hook Mr. Jowlz up with some dough for that new (insert hot RC product of the day here)" lol
Oh, and hue, Fly... That shit is bad-ass... If I ever get the space to be able to do that(or not lol)... I will be all over it. I gotta have one of those.
