Default very cool

Nice track would love to visit one day. Wish we lived in an area where places like that didnt cost a fortune. That is our problem here in the Tri State area.

Thanks for lay out suggestions.

Any more suggestions would be great..

Very interested in a track in Northern NJ, as well as a lot of guys who live close to the NJ boarder. Anything within a 30min drive from the GW bridge will attract some of the NY crowd.

Feel free to give me a call if you'd like soe feedback. 201-788-5525

I would be interested. I live in Queens and drive all the way out to South Shore Hobby in Coram, Long Island to race. Always looking for a new place to run my 1/12.

carl.. hopefully the idea of a new track will happen.... that would be excelllent..

just found out hobbytown in Fredrick MD.. just layed down an indoor asphalt track.. another awesome idea especially since electiric outdoor events are mostly rubber tire.

Making plans to be at the ORL race at kranzels??(sp) this weekend... hopefully to see some of you there...

Indoor asphalt, electric only or nitro sedans? Not able to make it to the ORL race this Sunday. I have a busy weekend plan and the holidays are just around the corner. I was thinking about South Shore, Casey mentioned he was going. Good luck at the ORL.

Spread the word about the north jersey track possibility and was greated with an eager and excited response. I can have a group of 5-10 driver that will follow. And 25-30 minute drive is sounding so sweet. Keep us posted as there is a major interest. Thanks!
