Cars & parts have arrived-drop by for some racing!
 
The first shipment of dNaNo cars and parts that arrived last Friday was met with much enthusiam by everyone. The end result was all but a couple of kits were sold out that night.

We still have lots of upgrades and replacement parts in stock including a great selection of bodies. An additional shipment of new kits is on the way as of today along with more replacement parts and even more bodies.

Lornecherry dropped by to support the racers and show them what a hopped-up car could do. He also showed off his amazing "dNaNo-cam" car. We'll post one of his many on-track videos that he recorded on our track shortly.

Lornecherry let me give his ride a spin (Mazda 787B) on our big and flowing RCP circuit. I found it pretty hooked. You had to really watch it at the end of the straight though. I never flipped but it was pretty close a few times. You really have to watch the steering angle and throttle you apply when doing sharp turns at high speed. I'm interested to see how a gyro works on the cars.

I haven't had time to unpack my beast of choice (the Motul 2007 Z) but will try and build it this week before we go live again this coming Saturday Jan 23rd from 4-10pm.

For now, we'll be running the dNaNo cars on same RCP track that is setup for Mini-Z racing. I found no issues with the cars on RCP. Although the cars look a little small on the track, I think that will be beneficial as it should allow everyone to take whatever line they want through the turns while also allowing any advanced drivers to stay clear of begginer drivers.

Coming soon, we will have a dedicated Porta-trax dNaNo track to try out. Once we finish looking into the possibility of renovating the facility to include a dedicated dNaNo area, we'll also look into a large "showcase" Porta-trax dNaNo track.

Very interested to find out how you'll find the handling on that Motul Z. Can you post the link or site where you'll be broadcasting live?
