Noobie looking for dirt track/bashing
#1
Hello,

New to the board. I live in Oak Park just west of chicago. I run brushless clods and am looking for dirt tracks and outdoor areas to mess around on and jump. I don't race per se but am thinking about getting into it. Anyone know of any cool areas or tracks that I can mess around and practice on?

TIA

woodridge has a bmx track. and there is a small oval track in alsip. those are the only ones i know about. you could always check out berwyn to see if the bmx kids have finished rebuilding it.

Where's the BMX track in woodridge? I assume if no one is there riding bikes, it's not a problem to run r/c cars? (electric)

there is a walking path by where i put pak here. take it back and before it turns you will see a path in the grass and weeds. it is just over a small burm.
