RC cars....Abel maybe you can answer this one? - 01-22-2006, 09:11 PM


My wife, our 20 month old twins, and I were watching Extreme Makeover Home Edition tonight. Part way through the show the designers were racing RC cars. The designers were testing a track they were building to put inside a little boys room. When my daughter saw the cars racing around the track, she literally jump off the sofa and started jumping up and down yelling "GO, GO, GO!" We've never seen her get excited about anything like that before.

SO, my question is...Are there any RC race tracks in the Willowbrook Mall area, or for that matter in the NW Houston area? I'd really like to take her to the tracks and see how she reacts wathc them in person.

It was so funny to watch her get so excited!

There are several onroad and offroad tracks in that area. Go to www.rcfiles.com . It's a texas forums for R/c racing. There is a huge race for electrics coming up soon in Houston, or it might be dallas. But they race every Saterday or Sunday. Check out the forum. They have a different section for all the tracks in texas.

There are several tracks in the Houston area. Both on-road and off-road. The big race Sef is talking about is in Dallas, but there is one in March in New Caney as well (Im going to the one in Dallas, not sure about New Caney yet). Like he said, go to RC Files and go to the forums section. There are a couple of Houston forums on there.
