Nice size oval around the outside of the offroad track. Check it out.
Wayne Miele 08-13-2009, 09:12 PM I can't be there this saturday, but will be there on the 22nd.
Track_Master 08-14-2009, 08:48 AM Looks good, Wayne. I think I'm going to take a ride up tomorrow and check it out.
Wayne Miele 08-16-2009, 05:31 AM How did practice day go?
Track_Master 08-16-2009, 10:18 AM How did practice day go?
Went real well, Wayne. Good turnout. I had a good time. I posted a full review on our thread. If you want, I can copy and paste it here.
Wayne Miele 08-16-2009, 02:41 PM Thanks for the update Tim. This track is so close to my house I hope it really takes off. I can run here on saturday and not get home to late to be tired the next day at Dirtrunner's.
Bill Evans 08-16-2009, 08:22 PM I was there on Saturday also.I think with a little more work on the tracks it will be a good place to race.I have to agree with Wayne that it works out because it is close to home.The oval seem's like it will be pretty fast.Just need's to be a little smoother.
Track_Master 08-17-2009, 07:48 AM Yup. They're off to a great start for sure. With a little bit more refining on the track, it'll be awesome. The layout is really nice. Not too easy for a seasoned racer and not too hard for a beginner. And the location is really good too. It's only about 45-60 minutes from N.NJ. I'm looking forward to racing there on the off-weeks from Dirt Runners and hopefully a few times after our season ends during the down time between offroad and onroad at DR.
I'd say that I'm "stoked" about the new track, but at 35, I'm too old to be "stoked", so I'll just go with "psyched"! :p
dano628 08-17-2009, 03:51 PM You guys running L8 Saturday ?
Wayne Miele 08-18-2009, 06:56 PM I hope to be there with mine.
Jerzferno 08-18-2009, 07:10 PM Whats the race format going to be? One heat and the mains? Or more than one heat/class and mains? Maybe a dual track series for a few of the classes next season depending on whats strong at their track?
Jerzferno 08-18-2009, 07:22 PM Wayne - Being a "retired" volunteer fire fighter myself, im curious as to the back ground of this project? Are they doing this for a fund rasiser? Do many of the fire fighters race? Was there a need for a track in that area where there are a lot of racers, with no place to race?
Wayne Miele 08-18-2009, 08:23 PM Should be 2 heats and the mains. A bunch of guys used to have a place to play at. It went away so they decided to build a real track behind the firehouse. A bunch of the guys have done a lot of work to get it up and running. I am trying to help out as much as I can to get them headed in the right direction. As far as I know the proceeds will go to the firehouse.

Wayne Miele 08-23-2009, 08:35 PM We got our heats in and the sky opened up and flooded us out.
Track_Master 08-24-2009, 07:01 AM What time does registration end and what time does racing start? I don't get home from racing at Xtreme on Friday nights til 1am or so, but I'll try to make it up to The Station on Sat. :thumbsup:
Wayne Miele 08-24-2009, 06:57 PM Reg. starts at 9 and racing starts at 12. I you need me to I can sign you up. Let me know.
rcworkshopp 08-24-2009, 07:04 PM Can we pit like at DR out of our car or do we have to carry our stuff to the field?
Wayne Miele 08-24-2009, 07:35 PM You can pit out of your car or inside the garage I believe. Definately out of your car though.
alexrckid 08-24-2009, 10:11 PM is the track constructed to enable 1/8th scale to run..?? if not, what about monster truck..?? nitro..?? electric..??
Wayne Miele 08-25-2009, 05:20 AM The lanes are 14' wide. Anything will be able to run on the track.

Track_Master 08-25-2009, 09:34 AM Reg. starts at 9 and racing starts at 12. I you need me to I can sign you up. Let me know.
Thanks, Wayne. Please put me in for the same 3 classes as at DR:
Tim Merelo
1/10 2WD Mod Buggy Offroad, Spectrum, PT 3398801
Sprint Car, Spectrum, PT 5051052 (If there's not enough to run, no problem)
1/8 Buggy Offroad, Spectrum, PT 3018019
And if possible, can someone save me a pit space in the garage? I'm probably going to be a little late after getting home from Xtreme in the wee hours Friday night/Sat morning. (I'll also be using that excuse if I lose badly on Saturday) :tongue:

rcworkshopp 08-28-2009, 08:10 PM I am sad to say but with 60% rain on Saturday and a 3 hour ride I think I will stay home. Not very happy about that but I don't want to take a chance of it getting rained out and driving up there not knowing. I would have to leave at 5 am to get up there by 8. I guess I have to wait till next time you guys run.
domo63 08-28-2009, 11:02 PM Hey guys his Dominick from Station 2 Raceway and you got it the rain killed us again, the race for Saturday is cancelled and re-reschedule for Saturday September,5 2009.The time remains the same hope to see you all then.

Sorry to hear guys. The positive thing for me is I am very likely to make it next weekend as today wasn't looking good due to work .
