My Name is Jim. I live in the Kansas City area. Been lurking for a bit. Just bought SR3 RS chassis #417. Finally made it past tire kicking. I will post a few pics and more details later. Just dr...

I've raced with all of the various different types of cars in SR3s over the years. Give equal drivers and equal prep (e.g. good tires, properly setup) the pecking order in terms of lap time is basica...

Looks good!

I recently bought a 2015 SR3000917 from TX. I've been racing a FFR cobra track beast for the past 8 years. I have been thinking about buying a Radical for years now. Finally pulled the trigger. I ...
