My advice is simple go and find a local club to race at if your not sure ask your local model shop they usually know, then go down 1 maybe 2 times to watch and introduce yourself to the people who are running the meeting and try and get advice of them how they run there club and what it entails ( pretty much what this thread said at the beginning ) but all clubs may have slight variations . If the race organizer is to busy he should point you to regulars who can spend a little time with you and offering a abundance of information even what's the most popular cars running there if you haven't already purchased any rc equipment yet, he can tell you how to go on at the meeting and some may even offer you to sit near them for a while until you settle in say a few weeks or so also offering some set up advice , this is how my local club Mansfield car club do it we always try and help new comers and beginners alike and I bet every other club does to it one of the great things about model car racing anyway that's my 2 pennies worth
