The wait is finally over!! The Allstar R/C Dirt Series presented by Mike’s Hobbies in Porter, Texas is proud to announce the opening of the Dirt Oval at Mike’s Hobbies in Porter, Texas. The ARCD Series will provide 1/10th dirt oval racing enthusiasts a venue to compete against others in organized dirt oval racing events. The dirt oval at Mikes Hobbytown will be ran under the Allstar R/C Dirt Series and be home to the 2020 Allstar R/C Dirt Series racing calendar. Due to COVID19 we will not have a point series this year. Look for points to be back in 2021.

The ARCD Series will have popular dirt oval classes and have classes for those bashers and off-roaders wanting to test the competition and experience dirt oval racing. The track features 15’-0” lanes, 225′ drive line and progressive banking creating a multi-groove oval.
