Always been into RC but never really looked at the drag stuff, they look ace! I'd definitely recommend one! They don't seem as popular here as they are in america but places still stock some decent stuff. They can be made crazy fast as well, mines already on the limit of what I trust myself using and thats out the box! 😂 |

I've looked, and stopped looking. There's just no clubs near me that do anything other than carpet racing. We used to all rock up to the Dronfield Civic Centre to race touring cars in the sports hall, then some indoor at Don Valley. Nothing for crawlers, buggies, drag. And it's an expensive hobby, so I don't really have any mates into it too. I have one into crawlers, but again the cheaper end. I keep looking at the Drag Slash C10, and farm truck it up. Hopefully someone makes a camper shell for it.  |

^ I’m sure it’s probably a matter of the facilities that are available. I’m actually kind of amazed that these days a local club of amateurs is even able to secure a space to race regularly (obviously not indoors in Covid times). I’d bet if you turned up with your car at one of their meets there would be others into the same thing or at least welcome you in to join in and set something up.
How long is a typical scale drag strip out of interest? Er, asking for a friend.

Haha yeah it is 132 feet, although me and my mate do a few parking spaces 2 bags and a jacket. 🤣. Luckily having 2 of us into it makes it a lot more fun but it would still be better as you guys say if any clubs actually did it. There's a club that meet up and race at race weekends at santa pod which we're hoping to get to but nothing local to us either. There's videos on YouTube in america of guys doing 10k cash days which look amazing. It is something that is still very new at the minute with more and more stuff coming out every month.
