There will be a new paved oval, a paved road course, and a offroad dirt track opening later this summer at Hobby Depot America in Hubertus, WI. Will keep you all updated as I find out more. :thumbsup:

im guessing a parking lot track right?? then youll need to run foam tires... we run caps all summer at the triclone, in west bend... cap cars take a diff setup then foams... i honestly do not think you will be able to compete with the triclone as far as oval goes.. but an outdoor sedan roadcourse track in the area sounds awesome.. there is alot of guys who want to run sedans outdoors...

I don't disagree with you there at all, Tri-clone is a great place to run.The hobby store doesn't want to compete with Tri-clone. Just wants to have a place for his customers to run cars at the store. Right now the way it looks , there is more interest in the road course, and the off road track. That is why I'm here, to find out what kind of response is out there.

yeah outdoor road course and offroad is what is popular... and there isnt alot of tracks near by to run... but as far as oval the triclone has always been the place to be.. us wisonsin racers are hooked on cap tires... with a flat asphalt track you need foam tires,, its tuff because most of us dont have two cars to run. once we get a good setup on a car, its tuff to tske it off for a diff surface...

you should contact scotty at trackside.. www.trackside.com (http://www.trackside.com/) he has a good sedan crew.. im sure they would be interested in some asphalt racing....

the problem with wisconsin the last 2 years is a ton of tracjks have opened.. so the key is finding something the other tracks dont offer.. thats where you get the big turnouts..
