My sentiments exactly, Jeff I think I met you there in fact. This is a great loss to On-road. It will surely be missed. So many good people so many friends made. This is sorry to hear and truly sad news.

Isn't this the track that hosts the WinterNats? If so, what is the fate of this race? Will it be moved to another venue if Kissimmee is the host track?

Thanks for the clarification. I have never paid attention to where in Florida this race was, just the fact that it is in Florida. Guess those were my dumb questions for the month.

It says its closing because the golf course is being sold off... Is there any chance the new owners might leave the track as it is?

I know this may be a long shot... But hey, its worth asking and wondering about...

I had already made plans and almost booked a plane ticket for the upcoming FORGASS race. Just sucks to see such an awesome track go...

Hello Kevin, being a track owner, I am truly sad to hear this type of news. With all the empty land in every state and city that is available, I still to this day can not believe that our cities government can not help us find land to donate or cheap rent that they will never use in our life time.

Thank you for the memories and something good will come good out of this and looking forward in hearing from you by end year opening a new r/c race track.
