I am looking to get into 1/5 gassers, looking at a baja or something fast / not sure what yet. The issue is I had to move to South Florida (Coral Springs area) and I do not see much space to run these things... Can anyone offer any insight to the 5th scale scene here?

Plenty of places. Just gotta look around. I'm from Oakland park. If I were you I would get an onroad as there's plenty of pavement

I did not even think of onroad as an option - The FG f1 looks great but man I do not think FG is very well supported anymore.. they have really gone away
 
I buy parts all the time for my FGs. If I were there I'd run with you. Hope you find a spot. Lived outside of Tampa for awhile too. Plenty of spots there too. I can't wait to get back to central west Florida.

Dear Tcaputo,
I am Located in Lauderhill, I run a Vekta 5 and a Losi 5ive-T.
The 5-T has slicks and I have lots of great on road areas to run.
The Vekta runs on grass only and again I have a great area to bash with jumps.
Currently I am just running the 5-T, the Vekta's motor seized up on me last Saturday.
If you want you can contact me call 954-275-3785.
Best Regards,

I'm in SWFL if there are any 1/5 scale bashers out there. I have a MTXL and I found a good place that is wide open and has jumps in Bonita Springs. If you want to get together, reply.
