Is it true that there is a rc carpet track at the Maine Mall? I was told there is one at the new Summit Outdoor Sport store. If so when do they run an what do they run?

I checked out Summits website and an artical in the newspaper.There no mention of a RC track, but still going to look into it next time I'm out that way.

i stopped in and its pretty small he rents slashs for 5dollar for 5 mins. he has a oval track for pan cars and is considering running a wed night racing, he has a amb system

I just thought I should answer some questions on the track at the Maine Mall.Yes there is racing at the Mall. I have built a short-short course track that is a part of Summit Adventures, Extreme Adventure Center www.SummitAdventureCenter.com The purpose of the Slash track is to introduce R/C to as many people as possible. In the last three weeks I have had over 900 try a slash,most have never gotten a chance to try an R/C car before.
There is also a CRC carpet oval there that is not a part of Summit Adventures which I will be holding Oval racing at.Looking to start racing this weekend 12/5/10. Box Stock Slash Oval,Novice 17.5 cot pancars and 13.5 pancars. So far the rules will be the same as Cumberland R/C. We will be more than happy to run any class that shows an interest as long as you bring enough cars.
As far as the short course,we are able to offer an open night on Wednesday that could become a racenight if there is enough interest.
Any questions or comments please Email me at summitraceway@yahoo.com
Thanks, Brian

well post more if something comes up for the sct or if interested in oval sliders

Whats the cost for racing? Also will there be any other SCT's racing other than just the stock slash class?

I'm interrested in racing my slash at your track. This weekend isn't 12/7. Are you really racing this weekend or Tuesday night?

Sorry! Sunday 12/5/10 is an open test day for the racetrack. Oval racing will be $15 per class. Slash is a box stock class other than Rpm parts,I will check with Cumberland R/c to see how to handle other trucks in this class.If there is enough trucks for an open class that would be great.The Slider cars are a great show I hope they show up

Sounds like fun....What time are you planning on starting?

I will be meeting with Jeff, The owner of Summit Adventures tomorrow.I will then post my hours.He doesnt open till 11:00am on Sundays, I will be there by 9:00am Just need to see how I can open without using the front door.

By open do you mean brushless like my blitz with VXL system or just open as in trucks other than slash?

well i own a sct ,cot pan car, and slider probually wont make it on a weekly basis but will be down to try it out for sure please keep us informed on information ,thank you

Just got back from the Mall an got a look at the track. Yes it is small for a real racer. But that is not what it was built for. It was built to interest new people an give them a taste of what could be a new hobby . I think it is perfect nothing to big to break parts. I will give what ever support I can to help out. I would even dig my slash out to keep it fare. If there are enough other brand trucks to fill a race he would be open to that. An they would have to be stock, Titian motors an stock speed controls. If you want to run the hop ups he has a large oval for that.
So all of us racers PLEASE remember this is more for trying to get more people into or hobby or sport .
