R/C Excitement is the premier race facility in the New England area with a large stocked hobby shop, indoor carpet track, outdoor off road track and indoor off road track. This race was on their indoor track which a clay/loam mix that has medium traction with little dust. With 149 entries the off road pits were packed and racers overflowing into the on-road pits.
