No nothin buried, both at this track and my home tracks it's just dirt built up. You definitely could bury stuff to use less materiel... probably helpful on a super big jump but I don't do it because you then have to dig that stuff up when you're changing the track around later
its always better to go slower and not wreck than to try to go fast and wreck. thats what i use to do at a local track we use to have. i would go slow until they wrecked then take the lead. you really didnt have to be a good driver at our track just take your time and wait till they made a mistake which they did every time. they eventually went to just oval. i guess so they could be competitive. it eventually closed not sure why. i quit going after it was oval only. going in a circle never appealed to me. never liked oval racing.
Crashing definitely costs the most time, nothing better than a nice clean race. Too bad your track went oval only, although, I drove sprint cars too so I'm an oval guy as well. Satisfying with the RC cars when you can hit your marks and battle wheel to wheel
@@TheRacinJason yea i hate that it closed that was probably 8 or 10 years ago. but i have a home track too. me and my grandson race sometimes. it has always been offroad for me. thats what started it for me as a kid in the 80s dreaming of getting a gold pan rc10 that i couldnt afford and watching jammin jay halsey in magazines. never liked oval not even the real full scale oval. drag racing was always my sport but i think rc drag racing would also be a little boring. all the jumps and turns just make it more fun in rc.
@@TheRacinJason yes i have its a cool track. you are hooking pretty good on that track. what truck and tires are you using? my track is mostly grass now we dont run on it enough but its all sandy top soil.
For your jumps, do you have corrugated pipe underneath the ground and covered with dirt?
