Hurts your wallet, I raced RC for 7 years.  BMX is cheaper.

its the only hobby i've ever had that doesn't hurt or hasn't left me with a long term injury ::)
too many years of pushing too hard when things are already hurting  :(

i'm gonna stick with the Rc now as its my main hobby at the moment
i'm a bit limited in what i can actually do nowadays as i have a torn cruciate ligament in my left knee & have been told i need a replacement right knee too as i limped for so long and wore it out :(

too many years of BMX, skateboarding, Ice Hockey & Motocross!

i need a competitive racing hobby that doesn't hurt me any further & the buggys hit the spot :)
there's a lot of ex Motocross riders who race 1/8 offroad as its still "engines & dirt" plus some of the better tracks are like scaled down supercross tracks so its good fun getting some big jumps in during a race  :santa_afro:

they are pretty good fun on ramps too, here is a backflip i did over the hand rail of the hafpipe!

Right here are the dates supplied by UncleBuck of next years race calendar:

Quote
Bill,
 
these are the dates, venues to be confirmed, think the euro champs at Cheddar are 2nd week of July, so avoid that too.
 
Keep the 19/20 August free too as that is a draught date for Hawks to celebrate 25 years in bmx and would be good to have OS there of course.But will keep you informed.
 
We will also have an open day for when the new concrete skatepark goes in, possibly June.
 
Would also be good to get your guys along to a couple of South Regionals in the summer, like Dagenham & Hayes, those dates will be set early 2006.
 
Scott
 
 
8/9 April Round 1

29/30 April/ 1 May Round 2 and 3

20/21 May Round 4

17/18 June Round 5

22/23 July Round 6

12/13 August Round 7

26/27 August British Championships

16/17 September National Club & Team Championships


I would have thought after the Brits looks favorite, lets have your thoughts  ;)
I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips,
 Straining upon the start. The game's afoot:
 Follow your spirit, and upon this charge
 Cry 'God for Harry, England, and Saint George!'

if you to accomadate everybody and everything, it will not get done. saying that it needs to be placed carefully . i would have hoped for the 6 week holidays, but thats a bit selfish cos most dont get them off. if we set a venue, maybe that would help, as we could get a list of possible dates sorted then.
I want to touch ORB
