Hi there Arch, I'm surprised nobody has replied to this in a year or so. I would like to share my dreams with yea.
I'd travel no more than a few hundred miles. It would have to be near some nice hotels to stay over the night or two.
I'd like to see multiple track lay-outs for different types of competitions. One such layout could be a semi-scale representation of La Guna Sega. Another would be a WRC hill-climb or at least point A to point B type racing.
A local hobby shop that specializes in Mini-Z's and Dnano's. All the chassis, hop-up parts, AutoScales, etc.
Pretty much what you'd find in Japan would be nice to have around here. I could go on and on, but I doubt it will happen. While we certainly love our cars here, it's just not as big as in Japan for such events. At least not the kind I think your asking about.
And didn't that big RCX convention held a nice race last year when the Dnano came out?
