Nice tracks... The Brystal was the first track I raced on that was a continuous rail. Kinda spoiled nowadays with all the nice tracks...

Just a little out of driving distance for me (Jacksonville), but good luck with getting some racers together. Shame not to get a nice club going...

It does kinda' suck that there are really no other people in the area that want to get involved. The state wide club is a nice deal all the same. They are good fellows and there are some good tracks all over. But the people and tracks are spread out all over Central Florida. I can't drive to Cocoa Beach or Orlando several times a month. The wife would have my @$$.:freak:

But there still isn't anything like having some guys over a couple times a month to to race and shoot the $#!&. There's actually probably people out there but there interest and commitment isn't where we're at. So... .:rolleyes:

Anyway, we're here, we got tracks!:thumbsup:

I got NOOOO problem hosting a race for you guys here at the house. :thumbsup:

On the other hand, I'm not sure how many people would be interested down here going somewhere out of state if it didn't invlove UFHORA.

There is a state race this month and I can ask around. Email me your thoughts and particulars.

Cool. Nice website!

I'll have to check it out sometime.. Do you have any loaner cars for a newbie to your scale? All I have is HO slots.

Yes i do have used cars for sale and i am a distributor for scalextric so i have a full line of new cars in stock, i also have cars you can use the first time you come out so you can see if you like the racing, we supply controllers for those who don't have them also.

As for cape coral its about 2 hours unfortunately, wish you were closer.

thanks Mike.

Hey Mike King.. Yeah cape coral is a bit south of us.. But, a guy in our HO group lives in Ft.Myers not too far from cape coral.. he has a nice custom routed track, I believe he made himself.. I'd be willing to set you up.. if you ever do make this far south!

Would she still be removing precious parts of your anatomy for trips just down the road to Riverview? That is only about a 35 mile one way drive.

Just a thought.

Roffutt and I went to Slotrax's last night. WOW! What a great guy and a great set-up. If you have not tried the 1/32 scale stuff, it is great fun. It is a refreshing change from the HO heavy magnet cars. If I had to discribe it in HO terms, it like G-Jets at 1/32.
