@@adrielburned6924Exactly! This dirt track isn’t bringing in money for the city the way homeless do. Get the track off public space where more homeless could be and bring in more government funds to spread through city hall. Sad
Agree! But they have more things to be concerned about than this RC rockcrawling course. They need to regulate the violent criminals, the mentally ill, the random street takeover, the smash & grab, home invaders, & many many more lawlessness than worrying about good people having a good time rock crawling their RC in a very small speck corner of Fresno. But what can you do with corrupted politicians? Vote them out!
@@markofcaine01 I didn't say they were in the middle of the street even though the guy is clearly standing in the middle of the street. That isn't the issue anyway.
They do. So they can built them one. This one is behind a business. Looks good but can’t have it there. I agree with these guys. Id rather they built it ones back yard. Fck it.
@@dakmycat3688 so why can’t it be in the back of the business? They didn’t say anything about that in the video, just that the city thought it would be to dangerous
@@alankowalski8781they are worried about being sued because some kid decide to play on it and got hurt. We live in a country where everyone is looking to sue someone for their own stupidity. So all it would take is for some 5 year old to think it would be fun to play on the track and trip and hit their head,or break an arm, and their parents would be all over the city. Plus the track was built by amateurs, not professional builders that build BMX tracks and skate parks.
As an rc collector and enthusiast, THIS IS ABSOLUTELY STUPID.

@stuwest3653 well seeing how you are the only negative person leaving comments, by going through each one and leaving your opinions really sums up how out of touch you are, sorry you have no friends, but don't blame the ones who do. Oh it does help if ya actually know what your talking about
@@jeremymiller2340so people that disagree with you must be wrong, you are always right. And those that don’t agree with you are bad and have no friends. And you want something for free, or support those that want something for free.You must be a liberal. The city is 100% correct in this, the track looks like crap and it is a liability to the city if someone gets hurt climbing on it. And I don’t mean with their silly toy cars (yes, you still play with toys no matter how much you deny it), I mean a 5 year old that decided it would be fun to climb and play on it. They trip and bust their head or break a bone and the city would be facing a lawsuit. If the guy wants a track, he needs to go buy or rent some land and build it there. Hell, he could even open a business and charge people to use the course. Instead he complains that the city is being mean to him.
Sad , disappointed people are easier to control ...they have already bought a pandemic , that worked a little , now they'll just outlaw any get togethers
THAT'S CALIFORNISTAN FOR YOU. those are 1/24 scale crawlers, they go 1 mph,they are not racing in the street! they would rather have a homeless encampment and drift of needles 3 inches deep next to the curb. and who is going to trip over it? people should look up from their phones and watch where they are walking!
The fact that the city is even worried about this means the same thing as always. "The people are getting to much freedom to enjoy their lives, take away their liberties while cooperations and the goverment raise the cost on the middle class. Over charging for rent and price gouging groceries is totally normal.
Sounds like Fresno city officials have nothing better to do. Maybe they should focus on unemployment, drug use, and crime in their town. Not people with a hobby enjoying themselves.
He was probably talking about the care and attention, the complexity of the crawlers, how you tune them, how you drive them. There's a lot more to it than meets the eye. Motor, transmission, axle, tire, and electronic combinations and tuning is endless. Not to mention the suspensions on these things can be tuned to insane levels. It's way cooler than NASCAR in my opinion.
It’s not a race track. It’s a crawler course. 🙄 That city is so uninformed. 🙄 As an RC enthusiast myself and my brothers. It’s like really… the city should find other things to worry about. We ourselves are crawlers, racers and pilots! GO RC COMMUNITY AND LIVE STRONG!!!
This man is doing a great service in his community. You can see the joy in the faces of the people participating in the events. Escapism along with human bonding is something we need more of. A hobby like this is within the financial reach for people to afford, have fun, laugh, and compete together. The city is being short-sighted and needs to reconsider its position.
It’s just like the 80’s when they confiscated and DESTROYED skaters skateboards WITHOUT A CASH COMPENSATION because it was considered a degenerates sport. I may be in the Midwest but leave them Californians alone for once please.
Unfortunately, the city is right about it being a liability. They should also do the right thing and designate a spot in one of their parks to be an RC track.
This is seriously disgusting !! Wth is this world coming to? Those are small scale rock crawlers they do not race on the street or in traffic and are not dangerous. I've been into rc cars since the 80's and it has been a blessing to me I'm from Massachusetts and most my friends are dead not me luckily I've always had the rc world as an outlet. Regardless these people aren't harming anyone smh.
@@PonkyKong Yeah I know. I'm just saying it's hilarious to even think of racing a mini crawler that goes slower than walking pace. (yes I know other minis can go faster but when you're using them in typical fashion you're driving them slowly)
So sad, Let the people enjoy their hobby. It's a great hobby for kids to get out and interact with people in a fun safe environment. Sham on the city for removing the one place people can get together and have a little fun.
Just a matter of time before a kid plays on it and gets hurt. Yup, let’s bubble wrap the playground people. Remember when you were a kid and falling down and getting hurt was called life lessons and being a kid?
Cities will take away all your favorite places for hobbies until their isn't any place for them at all. Then leading to more dangerous acts than ever before. They close down my local drag strip, then what? Everyone goes street racing. They close down our local motocross tracks, then what? Every single dirt bike in the area ends up being street ridden dangerously because new owners don't know where to go with them. It's all a big scam cycle
So they claim people can get hurt on that obstacle course. That looks exactly like all the rocks. They drop off on the side of the road to prevent the homeless from living there. What's the difference? The city is on a power trip picking on the little people.
And the same people who claim to be "better than Putin" instead being honest just lie in our faces. The government is for some reason always a clown show. Here you do not have even room for interpretation.
Number one rock crawling is not racing , and that’s an attraction not a distraction and it’s actually good for mental health, this is a very healthy hobby, and whoever is trying to run them off, needs to reconsider.
It’s not a race track. It’s a course. Those cars do not go much faster than walking. I seriously doubt any of the regulars use the go fast cars on the streets.
That's simple you stupid parents 👿!!! Don't let them p ANYWHERE near the little hills these people use for a track!!! Or maybe you will let your precious children play with the needles the homeless people leave there along with their tents after they leave the track!!!
Please name the city authorities that are responsible for this outrage projected against the peaceful RC community. The city or county officials are absolutely wrong and local people they serve are being targeted. This country is falling behind on rc and aerospace engineering these type of hobbies create innovation. These authoritarian governments need to be held accountable. They work for the people, they don’t rule over the people. Name names so they can be voted out!
It's not racing, idiots, crawling is low speed and technical, so many other sports and hobbies get the green light, and it's a course not a bloody track, I'm behind these guys all the way and I live in the UK, we all enjoy different things and crawling deserves an equal opportunity to continue, people don't see how many skills people learn from the hobby
This was like the weirdest… in my days a tyco rc rebound back in the 90s were played with by almost every kid in the neighborhood we use to all race it together until its batteries were completely drained .. never had or heard of any complaints so I’m not sure why people would start complaining about something like that . In Oregon we all had huge backyard where we made crazy landscapes for the races . Fun times .
They need to get out and find and build a even better place. Something similar happened in my town and they built a better place and the shops that were nearby regretted complaining.

they are literally standing in a street to use the attraction. the easiest and cheapest thing is probably to just close this one block of roadway to no through traffic one day a week and give it to 'em.
The city should more worried about all the homeless encampments in the city before they worry about a community racetrack
The city and state makes a fortune from homeless fund grants from government. They want the homeless.

They need that space for all the homeless to set up new tents and steal everything in the surrounding neighborhood

Homeless people made the complaint.
They should be removing the homeless people, the addicts, and the immigrants from California, not the guys with a hobby.

I’ve been in the hobby since I was 9 I’m 23 now. Those things go maybe a couple miles an hour. They aren’t racing 1/5 or 1/8 scale trucks or buddies
Ok, so, if a kid climbs on it and gets hurt that's called a learning experience or at least it was when I was growing up.
