I don't mind laying pipe but haven't had to pay for it. Maybe once I'm older... hope not though.

GUys not sure how many have the Yeti yet, but I know at least 4-5 do. I have this island in front of my house that we can build a track. I was thinking maybe that black drain pipe.

I have about six now but we would need more. You guys wanna pitch in to buy some pipe?

Home depot has 4x50 ft for $25

I think if we Wheel Barrel Out rock and the remove it after we could make a really fun. Maybe a fire pit and Beer's after?


I would love to have a permanent spot but I just don't think there is that many open spot that will just let us.

...i.think foster would be a good spot to have u4 style fun.

im not pooing on the idea but i wouldnt feel right tearing up the island in brians culdesac... id be more focused on pissed off neighbors than i would be anything else, but thats just me.

foster would be a cool spot for a yeti. theres tecnical rocky stuff and hills and the little trails between them that we always end up driving fast on anyway.

do the more structured u4 races have driver stands and turn marshals?

From video I've seen, yes.

I am collecting parts for a Wraith but I'm not building a Yeti anytime soon.
I think they are cool rigs but doubt I'll spend the money on one after driving a couple at he last comp.

i do however... think brians back yard could be a neat place for ultra short course u4. that big pile of rocks and a little lawn course with some carpet roll doubles would be fun. that was a cool stack of rocks.

Ya the island was just a desperate idea. Seams no one want to do anything. Im thinking Munger is gonna be about the best location.

To be 100% honest the reason I started NIRC was to break away from traveling south over a hour to play with my to trucks.

So with that I don't think you will ever see me at the lake front or Foster.. Nether spot is worth the time driven for me. in my eyes. Munger or Busse works perfect for what I need.

Sorry I mentioned it. Island was not really a great idea.

i understand. i dont go places sometimes because its far away or too early for me to get up and out the door for. ;)

ive had alot of fun at the original foster spot. ive never felt like i was gonna get busted or was being intrusive to dicks thinking they own the place. even if foster was further away id still like it.
