Getting Back into RC! - chicagopro3 - 04-28-2008

Hi everyone!! Let me introduce myself before i ask any questions or post topics! My name is Eddie! I'm 29, turning 30 in july! Married, and the reason i got out of RC for awhile! I live in Elmwood Park. Now it sorta starting to get warmer outside and have the time now it race, I'm getting my cars up and running!!

My cars: Old and way out of date, but here goes:
Losi XX-T CR,
HPI RS4 Pro3
Both cars have various upgraded parts, and what not,

Radio:
JR XS3 Fm Synthesized

ESC:
GM Racing V12 Xc (currently using)
Tekin G-12c III
Tekin TSC 420-G2

I prefer on-road, and is there any on-road tracks that are any good? I'll travel far to race!!

Do people still run brushed motors? Or is brushless the only thing to use now and days?

Man, i remember Stanton Hobby Shop, when i was open, that place was my second home!! Sad that it closed shop!! Now i have to travel to the burbs for parts!!

I'm sorta interested in drifting also, getting my pro3 ready for that type of set-up, just something different!! Is "drifting" popular in Chicago or Ill for that matter?

Leisure hours in Joliet has on and off road. One of the best if not the best around.
