Plus he has not raced much in the last two months, so it has very little use. :wave:

I just ask cuz a buddy of mine wants to sell me one for like a hundred bucks........

The hidden cost of ownership. 1.8th scale for sure. It is the only vehicle you could run every event at PG.

Monday- Place all retaining walls into track area begin deconstruction of office.
Tuesday- Finish placing retaining walls, order drivers stand.
Wednesday- Begin building the drivers stand.

--Need ladders, cordless drills with square tips to drive screws, drill and bit to drill holes into concrete to lag down retaining walls. Drill to make holes into/through 6 by 6 to fasten bolts. Levels, squares, etc this thing is a monster.

--Dirt will come once Lighting and HVAC is in place. Will know more on this Monday.

Dayton just informed me about this track. I will get up there a few times this winter. Im 3 1/2 hours south so i am much closer to hcrc in Danville In. Having built all the layouts at Stateline the past 3 years sounds like you guy's have done your homework. All I can say is good luck and I look foward to burning some nitro up there.

Got one of these. Uses 22 cartridges to fire anchors into cement. LMK if you want to use it. Works good for sticking 2x4's to cement walls!
