Not in canberra either, but I have around 7 RC cars - collected over various years. 1/10 scale nitro powered off road truck thing 1/8 scale nitro powered off road truck thing several 1/10 Scale Tamiyas from 4wd Porsches, to 2WD Indycars (fun on tiles). I'm keeping them for when my 3 boys get older (they're all under 4 ATM).

I would but my RC 54 Chev is more show than go. Not sure of the scale but its pretty big. Not too bad performance wise but it wouldnt beat anything. Main feature is the Grey primer paint and Hydraulic suspension. Oops i nearly forgot to mention the the chromies and whitewalls. LOL :

keilor has a great onroad and offroad track. its nitro/electric so anyone can race.
i've been into it for a few years now. started off in the offroad side, but then bought two mugen seiki's, bought a $800 motor, gave it to my mate who dremeled that and got me running some of the quickest times people had seen. clocked 140kph at a velodrome. now i'm running a tt-01 electric, 17turn double modified motor, m.troniks ESC, few little carbon and aluminium hop ups. goes the clappers. just waiting for a front axle, as i had a mishap with the fence :( |

it is a bit wavey for the faster nitro cars which tend to suffer from understear which sometimes they fly off the track. saying that the off road track is fantastic.

last time i went to keilor would be a fair while ago, it was good though. like it rained in the morning of the finals, and by 2 hours later the track was open for racing again.
weribee has a good track. its a very fast track. no good for electrics, however there is an indoor track as well. its a bit far out for most guys on here i think. |
