Charlotte nc

[JERRY2KONE]

Ok guys I just received the go ahead rulling from the wife on making my annual trip to Charlotte, NC for NASCAR raceweek at the Lowes Motor Speedway, and she is making the travel arrangements for me now. I missed out on last years trip due to our move from Brussels to Korea. I will be in Charlotte from 09 - 19/October, and I just booked a pit crew luxury Diamond Tower enclosed suite in turn two for the 300 and the 500 races(& got half price for group rates). The suite comes with closed circuit TV, full buffet, and all you can drink included. Plus we are all going to the "World of Outlaws dirt race on Wed. One of them even lives there and has a 45' luxury motor coach that we are parking right outside the track this year for the whole week. I am really stoked about this one. I know not everyone likes NASCAR, but I find it quite fun being involved from the fan perspective. I usually get a lot of perks because of my VET status.

I kind of started this two years ago in an effort to meet up with some of my old Navy buddies, but we sat in the cheap seats in turn 4 last time. None of them had ever been to a race before, so it was a great time for me to introduce all of them to NASCAR and also re-live some of the old days. We had a blast and the races were just an awesome event for this kind of forum. It is a group of about 12 guys who were all stationed in Holy Loch, Scotland at the Trident submarine refit site from 1985 to 1990, which closed in the mid 90's. It was all good times and we still get along great after all these years. Most of us had not seen or heard from each other in nearly 20 years.

Anyway the reason for my post is that I am curious to know if there are any good R/C tracks or R/C shops that I may be able to visit while I am there, that are not tooooooo far away from the race events. I may even do some driving to Charleston, SC, and Reading, Pa while I am there to visit some more of my old friends. Besides booking some time in a high powered go-kart to do some racing of my own, I would like to spend some time with our R/C hobby as well. So who's out there and what do you have for me. Thanks in advance fellas.
