I live in Corpus Christi and my hometrack is Starcar. I also race @ RC Headquarters(formerly Toys 4 Big Boys) in San Antonio and Gears in Harlingen. All three of those tracks are electric friendly and run 15 min.s or less for A-mains. I also know that a couple of guys have begun to run 1/8th scale electrics at Ncontrol in Austin; Check their RCfiles forum for a thread on 1/8th scale electrics. Of coarse, electric 1/8 scales are not allowed to compete in Roar or RC Pro nitro events(with the exception of Standard Monster in RC Pro). As far as the DFW area, I have no idea about JCG's or Indy but I think most tracks are more than happy to take your money at local events if you think you can make run time for the mains and keep up with the fast nitro guys. There may be electric 1/8th scale offered as an "exhibition" class at upcoming RC Pro events. Keep an eye on the forums for future updates.
