Nope, still pretty clean. I am limited as to where I can go since I am in a wheelchair. I have to be able to get there and then I always need a "runner" to flip my monster truck back over when necessary. Hopefully, over time, I'll get some good mud bashing in. Dave |

| I would look for the nearest rc track and run there. The nice thing about club racing is that there are corner workers, so you can drive it a little harder instead of babying it so as not to flip. Most tracks will have a ramp to wheel your chair onto, so not only will you have people to right your truck, you will have much better visibility. I mainly run buggies, but the most fun I have at the track is when I race my monster trcuks. |

Thanks for the tip. I'll have to look into that for the reasons you cited. We have one track north of Baltimore and another track just over the Bay Bridge on the other side of the Chesapeake Bay. Thanks again! Dave |

| Good luck in your search for a track. I mostly bash my monster trucks now, but they are quite fun to race, plus you will be with a group that is just like you-addicted to rc. |
