RCP offers small tracks for a similar price but the idea is that you buy your own and you can add it to a friend's track to create a much larger one. And with how much mini-zs and their mods can run, it kind of got aimed at adults with cash to burn.
For those on a budget, people just use industrial carpet or buy packs of foam mats and build their barriers. It seems like RCP basically brought the concept to a more refined and proven form, if you are willing to pay for it.
I have a catalogue from Tower Hobbies right next to me offering a mini-z enzo for $179.99. If people will pay that much for such a small car, people will pay for the track too.
