Default RC track wanted to put up in Fargo ND

Hey everyone, Im looking for a place to put up a track around the fargo area. My back yard is way to small and i cant dig up the dike next to my house. The city said it was destruction of property and i could be fined. If you know where a place is for a track let me know. I already have a couple laid out. I can get the equipment to make the track, so thats not a problem. Just comment back on this and let me know what u got.

Well if you can be patient until spring there is a track being built at the Buffalo River Race Park out side of Glyndon. If your racing itch can't wait until then then I would suggest getting an onroad car for the winter for running on carpet in Pingree or Grand Forks.

Speaking of Grand Forks, where were you last weekend?

Well it's actually me that's building the track at BRPP. I got started one weekend then got super busy. I'm looking for a D6/7 to move the dirt a little better but it's busy time right now and I may have to wait a little while. What type of cars are you looking to run?

some sct, nitro buggy, truggy, and others. If you ever need help out there me and my buddies would be more than happy to come help. Do you have a layout set up. I have a pretty sick one that i drew up.

SCT might not be an issue but finding a place to run nitro will be pretty tough. Kind of why we are building the track at BRPP.

Having a track that can run nitro races in Glyndon will be great support for racers in Fargo. It is only 10 miles away or so.

The KRC Off-Road Track is slated to be built right behind the shop to the north. If we succeed in getting racing going in Grand Fork good this winter, putting up the off-road track in the spring will not be a problem for 2011. The site is all commercial property at KRC, so the anti-fun police can't stop our fun there.

Be very careful where you put up your track at jetracing98. It sucks to do all that work building a nice track and then run into legal issues that will keep you from being able to use it later.

It would be hard to find a place in town to set up a track. Trust me we've tried.

Are you saying you want another track besides Glyndon? We will be running all of the classes out there.
