    I'm new here, not to Rc.  I'm in to electric off-road, mainly short course 2wd.  Thought I'd share my latest Rc adventure.  Just made a trip to redding, last week.  The hobby (all aspects) is doing well from what I saw.  3 Busy hobby shops, 2 of which are full hobby (planes, helis, boats, trains models, Rc cars).  The other is a Rc internet warehouse, that has a store front.  All 3 advertised for rattlesnake raceway, which is racing off-road, then oval on alternate wkends (weather permitting).  Anyhow, I was impressed and am hoping to go race there on Feb 18.  I can't wait for for local race season in kfalls, and the gp track possibilty.  Glad this forum is so active.  Happy Sunday, go packers ! (don't hate)

    Jason can't wait till I can find some time to come over, Sundays r pretty much my only sure day off I can schedule around, also a random weekday.  Unfortunately, I've been battling some health issues, but ill make it out in the next few weeks. 
    @ gps I'm in medford.  Seems there r more Rc-minded peeps in gp.  I went to the Rc drift thing Adam and sleads put on  , and look forward to coming over for more Rc events.  Thanks for the welcome my fellow rc-ers.

    Could be.  Maybe I'm out of loop.  Over in kfalls , there were consistently more gp racers than us meddy racers.

    I am always surprised how many people are into RC models.  It's good to know there are more people getting into the hobby.
