Looking to start a track In mercer Pa. Looking foe some Feedback on what kind of track and what class to run. :thumbsup:

Where is Mercer at in PA If its close to Pittsburgh I can make it up every once in a while.

it is about 45 min north of pitts.

I like I said I can make it every once in a while. Now what all classes will you be running? A few sugestions 1/10 pan stock 4-cell, 1/12 stock 4-cell, nastruck spec motor and battery, 19t pan, mod pan, 19t 1/12, a beginer class, gear box truck and car both stock. Thats just my thought's tho.

Thanks Jimmy

Great To Hear This Crazyd87! Hope you can come thru on this. With Mercer raceway there you might get some support from Miss Vicki and the racetrack, who needs/ I think that a beginner'sclass is badly needed, how about racing gearbox cars with Dirt modified bodys and/or late model bodies? Make then stock am\nd/or mod motors or both. Nascar pan cars, trucks, and maybe legends? Hope you succeed in starting this!

Carpet oval either flat or banked

Hey Xanadu are u from Mercer.

I know vicky well. I'm thinking that the track a flat oval and road. Thanks for the feedback. Talk to u soon.

Crazyd87,
Sorry i am not from Mercer but New Castle. I have attended races at the racetrack since way back in the mid 60's. Would love to have a rc carpet track this close to home! Please keep us informed on your progress and good luck to you!

Great idea! Feel free to stop down at SCH to check out the track. I and others would be happy to help you out in any way. You can email or call me as well.

Mike i'll try to get down there this weekend to check out the track and what it's all about.

:thumbsup:
Good luck with the new track. I live over by Sharon Speedway, in Hartford and welcome another RC track in the area!

Steel City Hobbies is a great facility and you can get alot of good info from them on how to run a racing program. Always have a good time there. Freddies Hobbies, in Ravenna, can also be a good place to get some ideas from. Both places have nice, smooth tracks, alot of pit space and well-stocked hobby shops. Things racers really like!

I'm an oval guy by heart, so Sprints, Dirt Modifieds, Late Models etc. would make good classes. But we can't forget the 1/12th and 1/10th pan cars, 4 WD touring cars, Monster Trucks, 1/18th trucks and buggies, and Legends. I guess what I'm saying.........IF YOU BUILD IT-----WE"LL FIND SOMETHING TO RACE ON IT!

Good luck again and please keep us informed of any progress.

Thanks, Dale

Thanks Dale if you would talk to some of guy's u race with and see what they think and let my know what u find out.

Thanks Dan.

go with a banked track.

crazyd87 you have a pm.

Thanks I read it. Thanks for the input. I don't think i'll have the room for 1/4 scale. But i'll see what i can come up with.
