I live on NW Side of Indy, and I would go anywhere thats closer than New Castle, currently 1.5 hours each way for me.
I know pepole with some space, just not the $4k for the timing and scoring stuff...
Indy is the racing capital of the world except for RC...

Hey Race Fans!!!!!!!!! Rumor has it that there maybe a new carpet track coming to Indy.... I sure hope so!!!!! we need one...
Anyway for the time being there are several tracks in Indiana to go race at.. Race St. Raceway in New Castle is the closest here then Hobby Barn in Terre Haute, then there is Summit Raceway in Fort Wayne, one in Boonville and a asphalt/ dirt track in Hamlet.If dirt is your style then there is Planet R/C in Indy, also there is going to be one in Beech Grove for what I heard,, I've seen the track so it looks good that it will happen, but it is a outside track and a 1/18th scale carpet track indoor. Also there is P&T hobbies in Mitchell and I was told they have new sticky dirt for maximum traction.. Also R/C World of Indiana in Lynn is still around and they still have the big state races. Joe and Shirley are the best people to hang out there. Also there is now a big dirt track in close to Columbus,IN, and some other dirt tracks up in northen Indiana.. Also for you oval nuts!!! Like me!!! don't forget here in Indianapolis we still have the Velodrome.. For those who don't know, it is a very high bank concrete oval that we race on it once a month in the spring/summer/fall days.. The drive line is around 1080ft or so, and they can run up to 20 cars at a time if it needs to be done. So there you go!!!!! Plenty of tracks to go to here in the Hoosier state. So dust those cars and trucks off and bring'em on.. and have FUN!!!!!!!!
