Come on out y'all! This will be a fun event.
For those of you who are not familiar with Indy R/C World:
This is an indoor track, relatively large compared to many indoor facilities. Ventilation is generally adequate.
There is a pretty well-stocked hobby shop, permanant restrooms (not porta-potties) and a well-lighted pit area. (Pit space IS limited, come early!) There is a cleanup station with compressed air and water.
Significant hard-surface parking available, both at the track/shop and usually permission to use parking for the church next door as overflow. (Confirm this with management please.)
The track is normally watered regularly and has a well-groomed surface. Layouts, while tight due to being space-constrained by being indoors, can vary from simple to highly technical. (Wonder what this one will be like? Current layout is fun, but I'm sure there will be at least SOME changes made... Indy does a good job of making sure the locals don't have the advantage of advance practice time to keep the playing field level.)
The staff is friendly and helpful, and the race programs are usually well run.
See ya at the race!

I've had engine issues lately too. (Modded engine with tiny stock cooling head and body that doesn't allow much airflow = bad... solution? Bigger cooling head and lean it a couple of hours.)
