Anyone race short course trucks? I'm looking for something to keep me busy over the winter and hopefully not break the bank. Is R/C racing as fun as it looks?

R/C Car racing is a blast! I race once a week down at our local track with my Short course truck and buggy.

Here's a vid of us racing at our local track...
