Strictly has rehabbed their small scale racing track. The track is now 50 feet by 20 feet of brand spanking new Ozite HD carpet. They are also using the new Calandra Clik Track barrier system. Racing with small scale on road and off road vehicles.

The track's main race time is Wednesday nights and they are also racing on Sundays.

They offer free practice time Monday thru Saturday 10am -7pm.

You live very near and you've never once stopped by or checked us out during our Summer parking lot racing?

How come?

[slaytanic]

Never raced small scale before. Only 1/8 nitro. I got a slash so thats my first electric. Whats the hot ride for off road? I would like to come check it out and get my race fix. It would be a little easier to get there then 1.5 hours to leisure. I stopped in the shop once but never went down to see the track. Is it 12th scale or 18th?

[chicagokenji]

Slay, what town do you reside in?

The track is best for 1/14ths thru 1/18ths

There isn't a "more popular" off road vehicle at Strictly. You'll see Vendetta's, RC18 B and T, Xray, etc. Foam tires work best.

Just show up and introduce yourself on a race night and everyone will let you try different vehicles.

These race there:

M18's, Recoils, Vendetta TC, Scalpels, Mini-Z's.

Tonight, Wednesday, there will be between 15 and 20 racers there between 5pm and 10pm.

i was actually practicing on the track for about an hour with my mini t and was wondering what type of bumper should I get and what other parts would be the best for racing down there spur/ pinion size, etc.
Thanks

Strictly's parking lot outdoor racing is beginning for the 2009 season. Track ready about 10am, racing at noon every Sunday.

You need to bring your own table, chair and an extension cord to tie into our 40 amps of AC power.

On Sundays that it rains the races are moved indoors to Underground RC Racetrack in Chicago.
