overheadrcacresRC Acres Club in Hamilton is home to one of the most regarded Outdoor Fifth Scale Off-Road Tracks in North America, and has just completed construction on its INDOOR 1/8 and 1/10 Scale Off-Road Thunderdome! 

Big Air, Fast Turns and a 44-second Lap-time (approximately 1.5 Kilometres of Raceway) are just a few of the things to be expected from a RaceDay at RC Acres Club's Outdoor Venue.

Spectating is always free, photos and video are always exciting to capture, and the racing is always larger than scale.
