only brushless?

asphalt or concrete?????

Asphalt. Yup Brushless For Now

THE TRACK WILL BE JUST LIKE DALLAS-FORT WORTH 1/4 SCALE SPEEDWAY. www.dfwrc.com

wow looks pretty cool !!!!you should go for concrete now that would be awesome,theres already asphalt in the area electric could run caps then with no problem

so is this being done to put the 2 other tracks in the area out of business?
If you are successful in that effort what will all of the racers do when you lose interest in this?

This is got to be a commitement on your behalf rod,I watched my local 30yr onroad club go to the ground because people didnt care. I love to race and see all the homeboys everyweek I dont want to see that happen to the oval scene in my area
dont care where im racing just want it to be there
do it admirably

aracefan3.JOHN IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ANY OTHER TRACK HOPEFULLY IT WILL HELP EVERYONE.WE ARE ALSO HAVING ANOTHER NEW HOUSE BIULT THERE SO MY YARD WILL BE MY PLAYGROUND AND IT IS FAR ENOUGH AWAY FROM ANY OTHER TRACK THAT IT SHOULD ONLY HELP THE HOBBY.WHY DID YOU SAY THAT ABOUT MY INTEREST.IV'E HELP OTHER TRACKS IN THE PAST LIKE NEW CRC CARPET.

Mike That Is Why It Will Be A Club Style To Ensure The Long Haul And If Anything Would Happen To Me The Club Members Will Continue It.the Airfeild Has Been There Over 30 Years And About 3 Or 4 Long Time Members Have Already Bought 1/4 Scales.

thats good to hear,I just dont want to watch a war unfold that would be dumb on everyones part!!! you 3 should get together and start alternate series races

Mike We Agree With You 110% On That.we Have Enough Men And Women In Uniform That Let's Us Have Our Freedom.we Don't Need Wars For Something That Is Just For Fun.

THE 1/4 SCALE TRACK DOES NOT HAVE A TIME FRAME TO BE DONE.

When you say "time frame", are you talking this season, or what?

Yes This Year Dozing Being Done Now

Will you be racing 1/4 scale oval on Saturday's too? What time (and day) will racing start?

Will the track be a QSAC approved / sanctioned track? (QSAC Membership)

Will it have an Amb system?

Will it have an Amb system? I HAVEN'T ORDERD THE AMB YET,BUT WE ARE NOT GOING TO USE IT ON THE 1/4 SCALE TRACK ANYWAY IM DOING THIS FOR FUN. IM NOT TRYING TO HURT OTHER TRACKS.IT SEEMS THAT WHEN THE TIMING SYSTEM IS USED GUYS SOMTIMES FORGET THIS HOBBY IS FOR FUN........NO QSAC JUST THE GUYS IN THE CLUB TO TRADE SOME PAINT.RACE DAY WILL BE THE OPPOSITE DAY OF CLASSIC'S.WE WILL HAVE THE 2 QSAC CLASSES THAT GO BY THE QSAC RULES.

Guys Im New At 1/4 Scale And Im Not Trying To Say I Know What To Do Or How To Do Everything Because I Don't....i Can't Travel To Practice And Race Alot So I Wanted To Build A Track Basically In My Back Yard [30 Acres].i Don't Really Fly The R/c Planes To Much But We Are Completly Redoing The R/c Flying Field For The Guys That Do Fly.

I Don't Know What John Howerd Has A Problem With................................... If Anyone Has A Question Please Just Ask Email Me Or Post It.leave A Number I Will Call You Back If You'd Like........................................it Will Not Be Setup To Be A Big Event Track Like Classic,great Lakes Or D/ftw.

Ok, I see... So, basically its just for you (and club members) to have fun on? and you're saying "fun" day is going to be on Sunday?

Is this correct?

Is this correct? FUN DAY OR RACE DAY WILL BE OPEN TO ANYONE WE JUST WANT TO KEEP IT AS A CLUB SO IT WILL ALWAYS BE THERE JUST LIKE THE AIRFIELD, WE ARE CONTINUING THE LATE OWNERS PASSION FOR FLYING BY GIVING IT A FACELIFT FOR IT'S MEMBERS..............ANY DAY CAN BE A FUN DAY IF YOU AND SOME GUYS WANT TO GO TO THE TRACK AND PLAY ANYTIME[as a member] NON MEMBERS CAN TO BUT ONLY WITH MEMBERS PRESENT.

i Haven't Orderd The Amb Yet,but We Are Not Going To Use It On The 1/4 Scale Track Anyway Im Doing This For Fun. Im Not Trying To Hurt Other Tracks.it Seems That When The Timing System Is Used Guys Somtimes Forget This Hobby Is For Fun........no Qsac Just The Guys In The Club To Trade Some Paint.race Day Will Be The Opposite Day Of Classic's.we Will Have The 2 Qsac Classes That Go By The Qsac Rules.
The Current Members Voted To Have A Timing System So A Brand New Amb Is On The Way.

IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO HELP GET THINGS ROLLING FASTER WE NEED MORE MEMBERS TO GET THINGS DONE LIKE THE ENCLOSED DRIVERS STAND WITH HEAT AND A/C AND THE PIT LANE DIVIDER.E-MAIL ME AT icemanrsm@aol.com
