This will be 3/4 of a mile off I75 at the south gaylord exit!!! It is on the west side of the road there will be a large sign in front than no one should miss... We plan to be open by the middle of next month!!!
After Talking to Adam I think this is got the possibility of being a great place to race and get parts
For you guys looking at this Please post up some ideas of what you want in an offroad track
IE jumps how wide of lanes
whats the biggest you would want to see a jump
What dirt you want
What's the longest you want a straight
Stuff like that
Let him know so he can get us the best place to race
:dude:I think (somtimes ha!)the lanes should be 10' wide jumps should be 1/10 scale friendly:dude:
would like 2 come up and race!!!!!!!!!!!!!:dude:
DONT FORGET US SLASH BOYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:dude::dude:
novice electric 1/10 trucks on oval
I had just won my third race in Florida and the track closed down
and then I moved up here and haven't gotten back into rc till now.
Also I'd rather be able to buy locally than having to order online and pay shipping.
Alan where are you at??? I want to get a dirt oval going for sure just without the experience I am not sure how to set it up!!! If you are into it and come help me get it set up I will make you a deal that you can race anytime!!! I think you would and I could make an awesome racing seen here in northern MI there is a few full scale dirt tracks around this area and they pull in alot of spectators and I think if they could afford it they would be racers and this would be a way for them to become racers!!! :thumbsup:
Yeah I think this is a great idea and plan to have 6 of them one of each color as well as a losi slider rental as well this helps people to either be able to run with us or to run more than one class and see if they even like it before they buy it but again thanks for the info and keep the ideas comming!!! :thumbsup:
I live between Atlanta and Fairview but work in Gaylord (walmart)
I'm part time so I have a few days off a week and would be happy to help get things going.
the track I raced on in Florida had everything from 1/10 electric to 1/8 monster trucks racing, the nitro late models were great to watch as well.
Keep me informed and I'll do what I can to help
Sounds great I will make sure to keep updating you but send me a pm with direct contact info and I will get a hold of you to see what when and where :wave:
losi slider racing would be fun and so would the slash races, that way its all equal and up to the drivers skills,not who has the most powerful motor (ie: brushless with lipo vs brushed motors)
Hey Alan glad to see you found Hobby Talk
Come on up to Saint Ignace on the 19th and race with us Adam will be up and we are going to have a little pow wow about Gaylord track
Also I am heading to MP on Saturday the 11th If anybody wants to hitch a ride I can pick up in Gaylord
Also want to put in a plug for the Spring Fling race on the 24th and 25th of this month
J Blaze get a crew from BFG and come race some stock and mod slash with us
KC what time are you going to MP on saturday what is the schedual for the race??? Wish they were not doing the race on Easter weekend I am supposed to be busy and dont know if I can get away!!! I will try... Do they do 12th oval there???
they haven't been doing 1/12th scale there. they just started to run them in bay city and grand rapids the last few weeks. we normally have between 18 and 23 heats of races in mp. they run alot of trucks pan cars (spec and 21.5) a few buggys and a couple heats of legends and some stock and mod 1/18th scale.
Hi Casey saw a message about gaylord and had a look
as usual I have to work easter weekend, but certainly looking forward to this hobby shop and tracks opening.
What about the 19th for our Club race up here
And you have to get the Spring Fling off That is the 24th which is practice and setup I might do a little race that night if they want to
And Sat the 25th is the big Show
You can run it at the Spring Fling
You can pick one of my extra pancars on the 18th and get it set and tuned so you can race on the 19th with it
We will have 3 for sure than
If you want you can call me at work after 11
I got nothing else to do
I have the 24th off but would bet $ that I have to work the 25th
maybe I can plan a trip up anyways, is the track site wheelchair accessible? my wife is in one and would anyone be upset if she brought her service dog? and IF I have the 25th off, any hotels nearby?
Alan switch over to the Spring Fling thread
So that way we don't clutter up to much of Adam's thread with My race
Just everybody come to my Race though
Like I have said it is going to be the Biggest Race In Michigan with Road Course and Oval at the Same event
