In the greater scheme of things, especially considering some clubs have indoors astro tracks, indoor and outdoor tracks aren't that different to make enough of a difference to matter.
Neither is dirt-based, which is (in a world-wide perspective) imho the point of the whole discussion.


End of the day, to me, racing is racing - you gotta deal with what you've got.

Some times, yes

The first time you put these cars on a dirt/clay track with big sculpted jumps you realise what they were made for. They really come alive. Nothing better. All racing is good. Indoors or out but dirt is what they are best on!!

Having done my second race weekend, outdoors again, I can honestly say indoors can not do them justice. It's like indoor 5-a-side, it's fine when the weather is crap but let's face it the premiership is never gonna be an indoor league. I really want to find a dirt track now, sod the cleaning!

indoors or outdoors it doesnt matter, we do it for the thrill of competition, west bridgford run an excellent indoor offroad series through winter, so does worksop and they have ex world champs racing at that venue. As for club meets we run at mansfield and have some very challenging jumps and such like with 2 types of carpet so the grip varies, the tracks that get laid are very challenging and test the best drivers out there, if you want indoor offroad come and pay us a visit, racing starts at 7pm wednesday nights
