We are racing 18th scales again at the Mushroom Bowl !!!
If you want to get involved in the best 18th scale racing South Eastern PA has to offer, this is the place to do it !

We race indoors every Saturday 1:00pm until around 10 or 11pm. We race 5 cell stock motor class onroads and modified 18th scale trucks as well. We are also considering a modified class for the onroards as well, but we need more participants. This is the closest 18th scale racing anywhere, so stop on by and see what we are all about ! The store is one of the best stocked anywhere around, they have the serious gear for all of your RC needs and wants and at great prices too !

My friend and i have 18t's. Is mushroom bowl running them over the winter? Does anyone know if Westchester Hobbytown is running them? I called them and the person i talked to sounded unsure.

I was under the impression that I can run my 18t with foamies and run "indoor". Is that what you are refering to?

All classes run foam tires on a very clean carpet surface.

As it stands now... there are usually around 15 drivers for M18 Stock class (5 nihm cells, 2/3A and stock Xray motors) and anywhere from 5-8 Mod truck racers.

The hours are correct... it's not your typical hobbyshop, it's more dedicated to the race hours and service than anything else. Me and my crew usually get there around 2:30 Saturday afternoon, and the races usually last until around 10pm. (depending on how many show)

I drive an hour and a half to race there... it's well worth it !
