Awesome!

[@LukesVintageRC]

I am stoked to see you with a XX amazing machine as you know. St Ives would be amazing just to see in person. Thanks 😊

[@kanenstuff]

Glad you went to Australia and had some good RC fun. I hope you had a nice meat pie and sausage roll from a bakery and also some good aussie fish n chips.

[@rcicons4915]

lol Had all 3 and enjoyed them very much!

[@kanenstuff]

@rcicons4915 happy to hear that, pitty. It's not summer. The weather is nice and hot.

[@Jaysqualityparts]

Awesome looking track, definitely seams like the car sticks like glue.

[@agevan6735]

Wow, thanks for the video, I started driving there with my Frog in the late 80's, best memories, so many cool cars were there, I especially remember the Mugen Bulldogs, those cage cars were a whole new world to me. I loved climbing the stairs and standing up on the platform. Wow, cheers Keith! And kinda bummed to see it now, Cheers from this Aussie in China!

[@wadeskelton7585]

Like the track & your tires are Velcro!

[@AddamsPlayground]

Overall not a bad layout and it was doing well except for the large jump right in front of the drivers stand. The one was not the best setup for all cars. I feel tracks should be fun for all and that jump looked like it would punish everyone that was not super fast out there!

[@VictorMartinez-FV5HX]

Looks like a good track, I've never driven on a carpet track but I'm sure there's a learning curve getting used to such high traction.

[@lo2713]

Trx 🤩 thats a great looking track, its a shame its now carpet, but i understand these things need to happen. I just love dirt or grass 😁 zx looked great out on track but OMG, i want a storm 2000 so badly now haha

[@jamesmcdonald2680]

I wouldn't be surprised if those little vials of St. Ives dirt would sell on eBay... As long as the return address was in Australia, of course.

[@rcicons4915]

lol Not a bad idea!

[@IowaBudgetRCBashers]

I wish we had a carpet track around here

[@Pablo668]

Nice work Keith. A track near me has has a clay/dirt track forever but just recently they've re-done their track (still dirt) and put some kind of sealant over the top of it. The sealant apparently degrades over time and you get it re-done. It's called sic surface.

[@rcicons4915]

No kidding. I know that Kelog oils their track. Might be the same surface.

[@badbarrsey]

The Chargers RC club in Brisbane has the Sic surface, it's pretty cool but looks really abrasive. Keilor oils their surface to add traction and control dust. That was a super fun day Keith, I really enjoyed the track even though it wasn't the famous St. Ives dirt. As Keith mentioned, some may have spilled into my luggage :)

[@vigilante351]

Ahhh yes - 2012/13 championships i raced here :)
