Sorry to hear that, man. Mine is a freedom ryder with the hub-drive electric pedal assist. The only issue I’ve had was the brakes were sticking, so I had to replace them with hydraulic ones. Other than that, she’s ran well. Hope that helps.
I would love for tracks like Red Ball Raceway and Levi Strauss Speedway to one day spring up at least for the Truck and Xfinity Series. The Old Spice Speedway is a very interesting and intriguing concept except for I do not know if acquiring the land for it would be possible. Now for a place like Dodge Raceway Stadium, I do not feel it could happen for a national touring series race as fun as it might be. You would have to have competition cautions at like laps 100 and 200 of say a 300-lap race because you would have to have controlled pit stops since the setup of the pit area creates a risk of crashing entering and exiting the pit area. I am not sure if this could happen for even an Xfinity or Truck race since you would have to limit the field size to like 30 to 32 cars or trucks. It definitely could not work for Cup because the 36 charter teams all need to compete in every race, and you cannot be limiting the field size to below 36 cars for that reason.
So your saying just buy a Schumacher instead? I have a older b6.1 was thinking of upgrading here and there. Do you suggest just selling and buying something else? Or can I spend 1/2 the money and make this competitive?
I would say that for the cost, the upgrade is definitely worth trying before dumping big bucks on a whole new car. But also, a lot of new cars have come out since I recorded this. The new Losi, the new X-Ray, and even a new schumacher that builds upon the one I recorded my other video on. I have no idea what's gonna be competitive this winter, but I'd mostly say it depends on the group you're racing with.
Thanks for the awesome personal response. How can I get dealer price on the exotek chassis? Haha. If you had to buy a car today for indoor carpet racing, what would you buy?
I get dealer cost because I have a hobbyshop and was able to register as one, but that's a bunch of paperwork and hoops you probably wouldn't want to jump through. Your best bet is to be good friends with someone who is a dealer and won't upcharge, haha. Honestly, as for car choice, this winter I'm gonna stick with a standard B6.4. I got 4th at our big trophy race last year in the A-main with it, and I doubt any of the new cars will be that much quicker than last years. But that's just me.@@josephrivera8463
@@dirtsgamecafe3937 looks like I’m just getting a rc10b6.4. Thanks to you. I appreciate the help. Hmm, You don’t feel the design is long in the tooth? Id really like to just buy once and not have to upgrade. Of all the cars, does the b6.4 have the most aftermarket support?
Associated cars in general are the easiest to get parts for, aftermarket or stock. They're so popular that people always have things available. But yeah, the 6.4 should still be competitive, unless someone else comes out of the gate swinging this year haha @@josephrivera8463
@@maxthunder2 Same size that the kit came with, just longer. I don't remember what size that was exactly, but your instruction manual will tell you when your kit arrives. I believe mine were 3mm in length
not EA, but the Dirt to Daytona track Crystal Lake Raceway is modeled after Stafford Speedway in Stafford Springs, CT. Crystal Lake is the name of the lake about 5 miles away from the track
I've been wondering about this as I started playing the old EA games again, especially because of how much I love racing on Old Spice. Great video, man!
Seeing this video remembered me a lot of Nascar 09 and these tracks, but i know them for another names, if I'm mistaken Old Spice Speedway was called Boulder Raceway Park, Dodge Raceway as Tiburon Raceway, Redball Raceway as Orchard Raceway (Also Toyota Raceway in previous installments), Levi Strauss Speedway I think stuck with the same name, great memories from that game
I find it interesting that Red Ball was Red Ball Raceway in NASCAR 2005 and 07 but UPS International Speedway in NASCAR 06, Toyota Raceway in NASCAR 08 and Orchard Raceway in NASCAR 09 btw Southern National Raceway Park became Southern National Motorsports Park in 2013
Hey Dirt Game's Cafe, you should do a NR2003 career mode 1990: Whelen Modified Tour 1991-1994: K&N Pro Series 1995-1996: Truck Series 1997-1999: Busch Series 2001-?: Cup
Hey Dirt/ everyone! :), Ive been watching and subscribed! i enjoyed the COD video, i love zombies too mostly BO3!!. Would love you to review my videos and give me some feedback too if you could? I'm just starting out! be cool to play together too
Old Spice Speedway actually gave clues what state it was in: Wisconsin. One of the races have Cheese Wheel in it, and Wisconsin is the Cheese State. They also mention that it is located in America’s Dairyland (Wisconsin).
Yeah, when I first played NASCAR 2005: Chase for the Cup, I could've totally bought that Old Spice Speedway was located in Wisconsin. I also used to think that the track was inspired by a recreational go-kart track as the layout and configuration look like it would be a go-kart track at an amusement park.
I think Redball/UPS Raceway is based more on Nashville Fairgrounds because UPS Raceway has higher banking than the real life Mansfield does, as it resembles Nashville Fairgrounds banking more. The front stretch grandstands resemble Nashville Fairgrounds as well. However, I can see that the shape on the track map does kinda look like Mansfield's shape. Maybe it's a mix of the two
I could see it being a mix, for sure. The rural setting is closer to Mansfield, and like I said in the video, it does take it's exact date on the calendar. That said, the extra banking and grandstands could have been inspired by Nashville. Honestly, I think most of the fantasy tracks are a combination of several real inspirations, I just listed the most prominent ones in the video.
That bridge at old spice is a real thing, I’m a Wisconsin native and I drive through the sturgeon bay bridge every time to get to higher up parts of door county, wisconsin
@@dirtsgamecafe3937 yeah, it’s a drawbridge because all of door county is surrounded water, this part goes over one of the rivers that connect sturgeon bay from Lake Michigan I believe
