We were traveling along Route 66 on vacation and had made a stop at the Pig Hip Restaurant & Museum. It had caught fire on the afternoon of March 5, 2007 and was destroyed. Even so, Ernie Edwards and his wife still welcome guests and will talk for hours if you're willing to listen. Which is just what we did. Well when we were leaving, we heard this noise and Ernie says there's an RC car track on the other side of the block. So we checked it out.
According to "Big Bill", we were a day early for the big national event being held at his track, and the folks there were running prelims. Well I couldn't believe how fast these RC cars were going. I couldn't get a decent shot of a single one of them.
Type of Track: Oval Dirt
