I finally got a chance to get back on the forum and respond to a couple of your questions. The property is located about 10 minutes outside of Jonesboro which should make it easy for racers to get to from several surrounding communities. Since there is a restaurant franchise involved in the property, we are not giving out very much information at this time. We will release a lot more information when contracts are complete and plans are 100% finalized. Our main goal is to not make commitments that we won't keep. As far as what classes we will run on the track, well we will run all classes that show interest. We will be offering both 1/8 & 1/10 scale classes indoors. I'm excited about all the amenities our new facility will offer and wish I could share more but I don't want to get into big debates here on the forum about every little detail. Once we get completely retired and away from the military plus get set up in Arkansas in our new home, I will have plenty of time to get involved in the forums plus get our new website up and going.
Thanks,
Mike

I apologize for the delay. We will be leasing space to 3 other businesses within the building and one of them is a convenient store that is waiting on permits from the state. I am working through our item file which is a list of every item we will stock and it is a huge list. I will assure you that this will be a well stocked and fun store to shop. I do have a little negative news. I have decided to not put in an Indoor R/C track at this time. This project has turned out much larger than I ever imagined so we want to direct all of our efforts towards the store.

Thanks
Mike
