Same here, I love that stuff. If I can get a rostrum and a peice of grass sorted it's back to the 90's.

1990's Rudebits consisted of 4lb of grass and mud on the car on a wet winter day!! AMB was not even thought of, and numbers stuck back to back towards the top of your ariel was the way to go, with someone shouting the number out as the car went past to a guy who spent the day tapping in numbers on a keyboard, and Springer had a Guns and Roses style perm.

Oh and lets not forget the makeshift rain covers for pitting, a couple of hatchbacks with a tarpaulin attached in the middle!!

Temac is the dirt track. I loved it there. Traxxas went really well on that track.
