I agree with you Mark in that the track was not well taken care of at all. There is definitely room for improvement.

Tell you al the truth I am at the same place you all are at. I don't really care whether or not RC is saved. The facility is so run down that it would take about as much money to fix as it would to just build a new facility. it was more of an excuse to cruise more than anything.

Plus I've een hearing more and more that there are plans to build a new facility out by Balzac.

Lets give someone a chance to open a nice place that they will bother to maintain, and actually treat their ******* customers like they matter.
I agree with you mark. The track is in shambles. It's crazy when you get down the track and turn off the track and have to dodge potholes. The attitude around there sucks as well.

screw the potholes at the end of the track. what about the cliff of a drop at the 60' mark in the left lane or the holes in the track itself.

There is without doubt a need for a new track. And if they have it out in Balzac.....that would be very good for the race community.

Well at least it is in the PM's and not on the site. I honestly find some of the moderators on here do over use their power sometimes.

I saw those posts in the SS/TC section, think it was the wheel thread, that guy is trying to find rims for his ss/tc...........i dunno, i thought u might have been a little hard on him but i'll never argue against you that half the mods on here are retarded and this site could do much better for itself......as for u being a little hard on the guy, meh, we all do it, we are all human right? I say don't rag on ppl who dun know how to search on google/the forum very well yet, these ppl probably just got a computer and have no idea how forums work or much of the internet for that matter. Not everyone is smart like you and knows how to google like a pro, even i struggle to find things at times, sometimes it's hard to put things into the right wording that brings up the results your hoping for.......now take that and remember most of these ppl have never seen a forum or posted on one before, they are still getting used to the internet in general and probably haven't even discovered the search function yet, nevermind learned how to use it to find what their looking for.......most of them probably think they are the only person to ask their specific question, i know i was when i first started into the forums. IMO, ease up a lil on newbs, if u get frusterated with "dumb" postings, don't reply, get in your car and mat the throttle lol you'll feel better i promise
